ST. GEORGE — State troopers temporarily closed northbound Interstate 15 near the Utah-Arizona border Thursday morning due to a wrong-way crash.
Sgt. Andrew Battenfield with the Utah Highway Patrol said a vehicle was traveling south in the northbound lanes when the crash happened. Four people were injured but none of those injuries was considered life-threatening.
Northbound I-15 reopened around 5:30 a.m. Thursday. Troopers have not said if the wrong-way driver entered I-15 at an offramp or crossed into oncoming traffic by driving across the median.
I-15 NB at the AZ/UT border has reopened. At least 1-left lane is available for drivers heading into St. George. https://t.co/iZug2BCHIC
