A man was killed on Christmas Eve in a rollover accident on Interstate 15 near Brigham City.
According to the Utah Highway Patrol, the accident happened just after 5 p.m. when 34 year old Ruon Meas was traveling northbound in the Interstate in a sport utility vehicle. For some reason he then drifted out of the far right lane and hit the rumble strips. He then over corrected and went left, crossed the highway again to the inside emergency lane and then made another over correction to the right. After crossing the highway the second time, his vehicle rolled at least four times and went down an embankment before eventually coming to rest in a farm field about 100 feet from the road.
Meas was the only occupant of the vehicle and he was transported by ambulance to Brigham City Community Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
An initial investigation found no signs that the victim was impaired or distracted, and he was wearing a seat belt.
