GARDEN CITY, Utah — A semi-truck has crashed through several garages, hitting a propane tank in Garden City according to the Rich County Sheriff’s Department.

The crash occurred at 18 North Lakeside Drive, a place other trucks have crashed previously.

Wright said there was apparent brake failure on the way into Garden City when the crash occurred.
