LITTLE COTTONWOOD CANYON -- There was a deadly accident Saturday evening near the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon.
Police say the driver of a blue truck was driving erratically up the southbound lanes. He crossed into oncoming traffic and slammed head-on into a delivery van.
Both drivers were taken to the hospital in extremely critical condition. The driver of the van died a short time later at the hospital. There were no other passengers in either vehicle.
Police shut down the road while they investigated. As of Saturday night, they do not know if drugs or alcohol were a factor.
