Kearns residents seek help to find truck driver after chain-reaction crash

Brian Littlefield is asking neighbors to look at his security camera footage. He believes the video holds the key to finding the driver of a truck that fled the scene of a multi-vehicle crash in Kearns.

The incident happened in the early hours of Sunday morning. Littlefield, a local resident, described the moment the truck entered the roadway at high speed. A young woman was walking home when the truck collided with a van. The impact sent the van sliding across the street, striking the pedestrian and throwing her into a nearby driveway.

The van came to a stop at the end of Littlefield's driveway. The truck did not stop; it sped off into the night. Littlefield said he was shocked that the debris field did not hit his own cars or the neighbor on the other side.

Debris from the collision, including bodywork, taillights, and headlights from both the van and the truck, is still scattered on the road. It has been one week since the accident, and the cleanup has not been completed.

The damaged van belonged to Littlefield's neighbors. They have not spoken publicly about the incident. Littlefield noted that the van was the family's primary means of transportation for work and daily errands, and its loss has disrupted their routine.

The pedestrian was taken to a hospital. Her condition is not yet public. Police initially responded to the scene as a hit and run. Littlefield said the family has not received an update on the suspect or the victim's recovery. When contacted for a status update, Unified Police asked reporters to call back on Monday.

Littlefield lives on a main road and wants the driver identified. He emphasized that children walk on that street and residents expect a safe environment. The Unified Police Department is asking the public to contact them with any information about the crash.
