MIDVALE, Utah -- One person is dead and two people are in critical condition after a multiple-car accident off of Interstate 15 at 7200 South in Midvale.

Crews responded to the crash at about 10:50 a.m.,  and police later identified the man who was killed as  55-year-old Russell Hale from West Jordan.

Unified police say an elderly couple traveling south came off the 7200 South exit and didn't stop, driving straight into eastbound traffic. Five vehicles were involved in the crash.

Police say the elderly couple were transported to Intermountain Medical Center in critical condition. A pregnant woman involved in the crash was taken to an area hospital in fair condition.
