BRIGHAM CITY — A crash in Brigham City that resulted in one vehicle landing upside down and on top of another parked vehicle claimed the life of a driver early Wednesday.

About 12:10 a.m., a vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed in the 800 North block of Highland Boulevard went off the road, through a front yard, struck a carport and landed upside down on an unoccupied car parked in the driveway, according to Brigham City fire officials.

The impact from the crash shook the entire house. No one inside the home was injured. It took emergency crews an hour to extricate the deceased driver from the upside down vehicle, according to the fire department.

The name of the driver has not been released. The crash remained under investigation Thursday by Brigham City police.
