MILFORD, Utah -- A 23-year-old woman and an 8-year-old girl from Las Vegas died after the vehicle they were driving in rolled off Highway 257, ejecting them from the vehicle and injuring two other young boys riding with them.

Kaytee Anderson was driving a GMC Yukon on Sunday when the sport utility vehicle began drifting off the road, according to the Utah Highway Patrol.

Kaytee Anderson was not wearing a seat belt. However, Kenzee Anderson and the two other passengers, Kaeden Lester, 7, and Kyler Lester, 4, also of Las Vegas, were all wearing seat belts. The boys were taken to a nearby hospital with minor injuries.
