MONTICELLO, San Juan County — A woman was killed in a three-vehicle crash in southern Utah on Sunday.

Just before 10 p.m., a Chevy Tahoe attempted to pass a Ford F-350 pulling a 25-foot trailer in a no passing zone on U.S. 191 near Monticello when it hit a Dodge Ram pickup truck head-on, according to the Utah Highway Patrol.

The impact from the collision pushed the Tahoe into the F-350’s trailer.

A woman who was driving the Tahoe was killed. A 2-year-old child in the vehicle was taken to a local hospital with injuries not considered life-threatening, according to the UHP.

Two people in the Dodge Ram were treated at a local hospital for minor injuries, the UHP state. Five people in the F-350 were treated and released at the scene.
