ELSINORE, Sevier County — Police have identified a woman who died Friday night in a wrong-way crash on I-70.
Utah Highway Patrol said the crash happened about 7:30 p.m. near the town of Elsinore, in Sevier County. A green Saturn car was traveling east in the westbound lanes for approximately 2 miles before hitting a Toyota 4Runner that was heading west.
The crash caused the Saturn to move into another lane where it collided with a semitruck also heading west. Norma J Jensen, 54, of Richfield, was driving the Saturn and was killed on impact, UHP Sgt. Cameron Roden said.
The occupants of the semitruck and Toyota suffered minor injuries. The road experienced lane closures for more than four hours Friday night while the crash was investigated and cleared.
