RICHMOND, Cache County — Three people were injured, including one with critical injuries, in a head-on crash Tuesday.

Just after 6 p.m. Tuesday, a vehicle heading south on U.S. 91 near 8600 North, south of Richmond, veered to the right. The driver overcorrected and then struck a northbound vehicle, Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Mike Alexander said.

Both drivers were taken to the hospital with minor injuries, but a passenger in the southbound vehicle was transported in critical condition. Further details on the injuries were not released.

Officials did not say why the driver initially veered off the road.

Correction: A previous version said the crash happened Wednesday.
