TAYLORSVILLE, Utah, Aug. 9, 2023 (Gephardt Daily) — Two pedestrians were critically injured when struck by a car Tuesday night on Redwood Road.
The two young women, in their 20s, were hit while in a crosswalk at 4200 S Redwood Road, Taylorsville Police Sgt. Jacob Palmer said.
They were conveyed by ambulance to Intermountain Medical Center in Murray where they are listed in critical but stable condition with serious trauma including possible head injuries, Palmer told Gephardt Daily.
The driver of the northbound passenger car that struck the pair in the 10:07 p.m. mishap stopped and has been cooperative with officers, he said. “She’s very upset.”
Investigation is ongoing, Palmer said, but initially neither speed nor impairment appear to be factors. “These are always horrible, especially with young adults.” Redwood Road was closed until midnight with investigators still on scene afterwards.
