Two dead in crash in Wasatch County

US 40 was closed for several hours after a fatal crash at Daniels Summit.

Utah Highway Patrol Lt. Cameron Roden says two vehicles were traveling in opposite directions about 17 miles southeast of Heber when they collided around 2:40 p.m

A Volkswagen Passat crossed the center line and collided with a Dodge Ram 2500 truck.

According to a UHP press release, there were four people in the Volkswagen and none were wearing seatbelts. The driver, an adult woman, was killed in the accident, as was a three-year-old girl.

Two other children in the car were injured and flown to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

There were two men in the truck. Both were injured and transported to hospital by ambulance with non-life-threatening injuries.

The highway was closed in both directions for several hours on Tuesday afternoon and evening.

The identities of those killed in the crash have not yet been released.
