LAYTON — A crash left one person in critical condition and prompted traffic disruptions Tuesday night in Layton.

The crash happened on southbound U.S. 89, Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Mike Alexander said.

One vehicle lost control and rolled "into the southbound on-ramp where it struck a second vehicle," Alexander said.

However, the male driver in the vehicle that rolled suffered serious injuries and was transported to a local hospital. A female passenger also in that vehicle was ejected and suffered critical injuries; she was also flown to a hospital for treatment.

Alexander said all lanes of U.S. 89 in the area were shut down late Tuesday, and traffic was diverted to Gordon Avenue as crews investigate the crash.
