1. The Utah Highway Patrol reports that two individuals were critically injured after a stalled vehicle was hot on I-215. The incident occurred late Saturday night near 1500 West. An SUV hit the stalled vehicle. Both the driver of the vehicle and the passenger of the stalled vehicle are being treated at a local hospital while the driver of the SUV suffered minor injuries.

2. The Salt Lake City School District will receive another $33.6 million in federal funding for the 2022-2023 school year. Despite the additional funds, the district is still spending $39.9 million more than it will be collecting in revenue next year. The district will be working to address the deficit with teacher position cuts. (KPVI News 6)
3. Salt Lake County will be opening a series of cooling sites throughout the county this summer. The sites are located at various libraries, aquatic centers, senior centers, and recreational centers.
