SOUTH OGDEN, Utah (AP) -- Several people are still recovering this morning after a deck they were standing on collapsed over the weekend at a missionary farewell party.

It happened Sunday afternoon at a home near 5600 South and 2200 East in South Ogden.

Police say around 15 people were standing on the deck --- which is located in the backyard --- when it started to lean and topple over.

Officers say the injuries were all relatively minor, including a head injury and some broken bones.
