PHOTOS: A man was transported by Life Flight to St. George Regional Hospital after the truck he was in submerged into the water from the loading dock at Quail Creek State Park on Tuesday evening, according to St. George News. While the investigation is still active, Lt. Regan Wilson with the State of Utah Department of Natural Resources said foul play is not suspected, though it isn’t definitely ruled out. “It’s unknown whether or not he put his vehicle in drive or reverse or what actually happened,” Wilson said. “Rangers are investigating at this time.” The man’s condition was reported unknown at the time, he said. A witness told St. George News the man had been fishing alone and was loading his boat onto a trailer hitched to his truck when the incident occurred.
