"FILLMORE, Utah (ABC 4 News) - On Saturday morning December 3, 2011, at approximately 5:15am, a single vehicle fatal crash occurred on I-15 at mile marker 167 in Fillmore, Utah.

The driver of a Honda Odyssey van was traveling Southbound on the snow packed roadway when he began to lose control of his vehicle. The van slid off the right side of the roadway and onto the shoulder area where it struck a light pole on the driver's side door.

The driver of the van, Ulises Medina, age 42, from West Jordan, Utah, was killed instantly when the vehicle struck the light pole.

Medina had 4 other family members in the car including his wife, age 29, his mother, age 60, and his two children ages 2 and 4 years old. All 4 passengers were taken by ambulance to Fillmore Hospital with minor injuries.

Luckily, the 2 children were buckled up in car seats and the three adults were all restrained with seat belts.

Speed does appear to be a factor in this crash.

No traffic lanes were closed while this crash was investigated.

This incident is still under investigation."
