IRON COUNTY, Utah — State troopers say one man died Wednesday morning after his truck tipped on state Route 20.
Officials said the commercial box truck drifted off the right side of the road, and the driver corrected back to the left, before the truck overturned onto its side.
The driver, a 24-year-old man who was the only person in the truck, was not wearing a seat belt and was ejected from the truck.
Troopers said the man died on scene and investigators are looking into impairment and distraction as possible contributors to the crash.
S.R. 20 was closed for around four hours.
