SOUTH SALT LAKE, Utah — A driver was killed in a car crash on Interstate 15 Sunday afternoon in South Salt Lake, and their passenger was also injured.
Utah Highway Patrol said a Dodge Charger was traveling north on I-15 near 3300 South, around 4:30 p.m., when it went off the right side of the road and rolled. The car came to rest upside down between the northbound lanes and the 3300 South on-ramp.
The female driver and male passenger were both taken to local hospitals. The driver died from her injuries, while the passenger is expected to survive.
The deceased victim was later identified as 45-year-old Erin Bingham from South Ogden.
Police initially believed it to be a single-vehicle crash, but they later determined that the Charger and a Honda Civic collided, causing the Charger to lose control.
All the northbound lanes were closed for about five minutes around 5:30 p.m. They have since been fully reopened.
