WYDOT said that the Memorial Hospital of Sweetwater County treated 18 injuries from the crash. A Wyoming woman is also being treated at the University of Utah Hospital with life-threatening injuries.
“Due to complexities in this crash, off-scene investigations and crash reconstructions conducted by WHP are expected to take quite some time,” said Tim Cameron, Colonel of the Wyoming Highway Patrol. “We appreciate everyone’s patience as we examine all the evidence and work toward developing a crash narrative and cause that is as accurate as possible.”
WYDOT said it’s beginning the process of reopening the Green River Tunnel and expects it to be reopened on Thursday.
