ST. GEORGE — Four cars, one a new 2017 luxury SUV, were badly damaged Wednesday as a car carrier rolled on the northbound I-15 ramp from St. George Boulevard.

Just before 12:45 p.m. the call was received that a wreck had occurred on the ramp. When troopers, officers, and firefighters arrived, they found a Dodge Ram 5500 truck on its passenger side. It had been towing a car carrier loaded with a Honda minivan, a Mercury minivan, and a new 2017 Audi SUV.

“It came around the turn, flipped over onto its side, and skidded across the road kind of going over the concrete median," Utah Highway Patrol Trooper Grant Hintze said.

The wreck was partially blocking the northbound on-ramp to I-15. The driver was not injured in the mishap.
