KAYSVILLE, Utah — A Utah Highway Patrol trooper was involved in a crash on Wednesday September 26.

Pickup truck rear-ends UHP vehicle parked along the side of I-15 in Davis County.

The trooper had just pulled over a vehicle on I-15 southbound near mile marker 329 in Kaysville.

While the trooper was still in his vehicle, a Chevy S-10 pickup truck hit the rear end of it at a speed of about 25 mph.

Investigators say it appears the driver left his lane for some reason and drifted into emergency lane.

The trooper has a sore back but is otherwise uninjured.

The Davis County Sheriff’s Department is investigating the accident.
