Both cars were northbound at the time of the crash, with the Volkswagen following behind the Chevrolet, St. George Police Sgt. Choli Ence said.

Medical personnel from Gold Cross Ambulance arrived and transported both drivers to the hospital. The extent of their injuries was unknown to police at the time of this report.
