GRAND COUNTY, Utah — Two drivers were killed and a teenage passenger was critically injured in a head-on crash near Moab Tuesday night.
Initially, only one driver, identified later as 46-year-old Moab resident Jennifer Ann Relph, was killed in the crash.
However, officials later updated the situation, saying the other driver, identified as 50-year-old Moab resident Martin J. Espinoza, also died of his injuries.
The deadly crash happened on US-191 near milepost 120 at 8 p.m. Tuesday.
