A deadly crash this week at the intersection of State Route 24 and Williams Field Road near Queen Creek killed one person and left three others hurt, according to Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS).
Officials said the crash involved a car and a crane truck near State Route 24 in the Queen Creek area.
"The collision occurred in the intersection, but the resulting wreckage ended up on State Route 24, which is DPS jurisdiction," DPS said in a statement.
Officials with the Mesa Fire and Medical Department, who also responded to the crash, said it was a t-bone crash with the four people in a crossover-style SUV and that the four people inside had to be extricated by crews.
DPS officials said the one person in the SUV died on scene and the other three were taken to trauma centers in the area and listed in critical condition.
SR 24 was just extended to Ironwood Drive in August, it had ended at Ellsworth Road until then. The Arizona Department of Transportation extension project began in 2020.
