WASHINGTON COUNTY, Utah — A rollover crash that blocked 2 lanes of northbound I-15 in Washington County, which involved a Utah Department of Transportation vehicle, is under investigation.
The crash happened at 7:54 a.m., near mile marker 22 on the interstate just before Leeds. Hurricane Valley Fire and Rescue says that three vehicles were involved in the crash.
Utah Highway Patrol says that a UDOT sweeper was cleaning up the lanes from a previous crash earlier Wednesday morning when it was hit by a Nissan car. That Nissan would spin to the right and was struck by another vehicle. The crash is under investigation by the Utah Highway Patrol.
The driver of the Nissan was taken to the hospital in critical condition. Officials say the other driver had minor injuries, and the UDOT crew was uninjured.
