TOOELE, Utah, Sept. 18, 2016 (Gephardt Daily) — Traffic is delayed in Tooele Sunday evening after a man collapsed and died at the side of I-80, which led to two subsequent fender benders.

Trooper Cameron Roden, spokesman for the Utah Highway Patrol, said investigators are still piecing together information, but it appears the man was walking eastbound at the side of I-80 at exit 99 when a woman driver saw him fall and collapse.

Ambulance crews were called and CPR was begun on the man, but he passed away.

Traffic is being affected by that incident as well as two subsequent fender benders in that same area.

Gephardt Daily will have more on this developing story as information becomes available.
