WELLINGTON, Utah (AP) — Utah authorities say a tractor-trailer rig crashed into a restaurant, flattening the business and injuring three people.
The Utah Highway Patrol says the truck was traveling too fast for conditions on U.S. 6 when it left the highway Wednesday morning and struck the restaurant, which was open for business.
Details on the conditions of the injured and details on their injuries weren’t immediately available.
The Highway Patrol says an owner of the restaurant was standing outside when troopers arrived and that the troopers helped rescue that man’s trapped wife from the flattened wreckage.
The Highway Patrol also says the crash knocked out electrical and gas to part of Wellington, which is 104 miles (167 kilometers) southeast of Salt Lake City.
