Layton – In the event of a car accident in Layton on Monday, charges were submitted in which hundreds of residents triggered the power supply for several hours.

Lt. Michael Donnelly from the Layton police authority informed the standard sub-search on Monday evening that the crash, in which a Toyota Sienna took out three power masts, was reported on Monday at 6 p.m. at the intersection of the Gentile Street and Fairfield Road.

“What witnesses told us at the scene was that on the Gentile Street through the intersection of Fairfield at a high speed, when he lost control, he got through the crossroads of Fairfield.”

The fourth pole was near the entrance to the Bristol Bay apartments.

Donnelly said that the driver and a 29-year-old man with non-life-threatening injuries were brought to a local hospital and that no other spectators or drivers were injured.

“We submitted charges against the driver of this car,” Donnelly told the standard Examiner on Wednesday. “He was charged with Dui, open container, ruthless threat, and then there were some traffic offenses – he had a suspended license and then negligent collision.”

Donnelly refused to identify the driver.

“We want to get back the (toxicity) results,” he said. “He suffered a head injury in the crash. We have already found a probable reason for Dui, but we would like to make sure it was not part of the injury we saw, so we didn't publish his name.”

He added that the driver seemed to drive at an extreme speed for a zone of 35 miles per hour.

“Many witnesses estimated its speed at over 100 miles an hour through the intersection,” he said. “We hear that a lot and it tends to be not true. In this case, we believe that before the crash he exceeded a gentile street over 100 miles per hour.”

Donnelly said that they are still examining to confirm a speed.

Spectators also reported that the driver got out of the car and seemed to laugh.

As a result of the crash, the power supply was lost in the area to the early morning hours of Tuesday. According to the Rocky Mountain Power website, all power supply was restored in Layton at 10 a.m.
