My son and I drove past this crash shortly after it happened last evening. Responders were there, but even in the dark it looked really bad:
Lt. Kyle Whitehead of the St. George Police Department said witnesses reported the dark blue Jeep was traveling south on 3050 East at a high rate of speed, swerving across three lanes of traffic, and smashing into a nearby building, tearing a hole in a concrete wall and uprooting a tree.
There was also, oddly, and unreported in the paper, one of those cluster of mailboxes you see in cul-de-sacs, bent and destroyed in the middle of the road. Not sure if he hit it and sent it flying from where it was supposed to be, or if he was swerving to avoid it because it fell out of a truck.
