SUMMIT COUNTY, Utah — A truck driver died Tuesday afternoon in a rollover crash on Interstate 84.
Utah Highway Patrol said around 12:30 p.m., a tanker semi-truck hauling fuel lost control while heading west near milepost 117, between Echo and Henefer.
The trailer started to spin, the truck rolled, and the tank became disconnected from the truck. The trailer also then rolled onto its side.
