PROVO — Two people were killed after a car rolled off the roadway down a “steep embankment” near the Provo Shooting Sports Park, the Utah County Sheriff’s Office said.

Lt. Josh Chappel said at approximately 10 p.m., a 911 call reported an accident, stating there were injuries. Authorities arrived at Khyv Peak Road, where the car had reportedly veered from. Two people were declared dead, but Chappel did not say if they were pronounced dead at the scene or taken to the hospital first.

On Thursday, the sheriff’s office said that 24-year-old Scarleth Fuerzalda Navarro was thrown from the car and died at the scene. The car’s driver, 23-year-old, Justan Carnales Navarro, also died in the car.

The office reports that two other passengers survived the crash with “less serious injuries.” One of the passengers told police that the speed of the car contributed to the crash.
