Provo, Utah – On Sunday evening, two people were seriously injured in a crash on U.S. Highway 189 near Vivian Park in Provo Canyon.
According to officials with the Utah Highway Patrol, a Toyota Camry was turning left from the park onto U.S. 189 when it pulled out in front of a Nissan Rogue traveling eastbound.
According to state troopers, the front of the Rogue hit the driver’s side of the Camry.
