Two killed and three injured in Iron County crash

Two people were killed and three more were injured on Thursday morning on SR-56 in Iron County.

The crash took place when the teens were traveling east on SR-56 and their pickup truck left the road and hit an embankment of the cross street at 7200 West, between Modena and Beryl Junction.

The pickup truck overturned several times removing all five teenage occupants. The Utah Department of Public Safety says none of the teens used seatbelts.

Two of the teens were pronounced dead at the scene.

One teen was a 17-year-old male and the other was a 13-year-old female.

The other three teens that were admitted to the hospital include a 15-year-old female in critical condition, a 16-year-old male in serious condition, and a male in stable condition.
