 A 2014 Ford Focus, carrying a man from Fielding, Utah, a woman from Tremonton, Utah, and a juvenile, was heading south on 100 W when it veered off the road onto the right shoulder.

Both adults in the Ford were rushed to a nearby hospital by ambulance but did not survive their injuries. The juvenile, who was wearing a seatbelt, was flown to an area hospital in critical condition.
