SUNSET, Utah – Police said a 3-year-old girl was critically injured and her brother and father suffered minor injuries after a vehicle crash in Sunset Thursday.

Sunset Police Department officials said the crash occurred around 5:00 p.m. near 1800 N. Main St. in Sunset.

Police said the accident is under investigation, but they said it appears a car traveling south on Main Street turned left in front of a pickup truck and was struck broadside.

The 3-year-old girl was taken by air to Primary Children’s Hospital in critical condition. Her 2-year-old brother was shaken up and suffered cuts and bruises, and the 29-year-old father, who was driving the vehicle, suffered cuts and bruises, as well as a broken nose that may have been caused by the air bag deployment. The driver and passenger in the truck were not injured.
