Crash in St. George leaves one man dead
ST. GEORGE, Utah — A man is dead following a crash involving a car and a motorcycle Saturday night.
Utah Highway Patrol reports the crash occurred on SR-9, near milepost six, at around 9:23 p.m.
The motorcyclist was traveling at “excessive speeds” and “cutting in and out of traffic,” according to UHP. Following this, he crashed into the rear of a black Nissan Versa.
This caused the motorcyclist to be thrown from his vehicle into the westbound lane. Along with this, the motorcycle slid into the shoulder of the westbound lane and burst into flames.
UHP says the motorcyclist was taken to an area hospital, where he died from his injuries.
No injuries from the Nissan Versa were reported.
UHP is investigating excessive speed and reckless driving as contributors to the crash.
