PROVO, Utah (AP) -- A trial has been set for the driver of a semi that exploded on U-S Six in Spanish Fork Canyon last year.
Thirty-one-year-old Travis Stewart, of Rexburg, Idaho, pleaded NOT guilty to several charges, including causing a catastrophe, reckless endangerment and reckless driving.
Last August, authorities say the semi was carrying 36-thousand pounds of explosives when it jackknifed, skidded across the road, and exploded.
The blast caused a 70-foot-wide crater in the road and injured at least ten people. Stewart's trial is set for November 21st.
