SALT LAKE CITY – A man suffered minor injuries after a crash on Interstate 80 Saturday morning.

Utah Highway Patrol troopers say that just before 4 a.m., the man flipped his car over on the I-80 westbound ramp to I-215.

Firefighters had to extract the man, cutting the roof off his car. He was wearing a seat belt and only suffered minor injuries.

Troopers say he may have been traveling too fast or may have fallen asleep at the wheel.
