A man was in critical condition Wednesday after he crashed into an Interstate 15 concrete barrier wall and then got out of the vehicle and jumped from an overpass near 7200 South.

Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Todd Royce said the man's car appeared to have gone out of control on southbound I-15 near 7200 South and then collided with the wall at 11:34 a.m.

Royce said troopers were just beginning to investigate the bizarre incident, and could not say why the man jumped from the overpass onto the pavement below, sustaining multiple broken bones and other trauma.

The man was rushed to Intermountain Medical Center in Murray by ground ambulance.

The right-hand lane of the freeway at the scene was closed into early Wednesday afternoon as the investigation got underway.
