HELPER, Utah (ABC 4 News) - Carbon County and Utah Highway Patrol officials say a Helper man was killed Sunday afternoon when his SUV left the road and tumbled about 100 feet down a steep hill.

The crash happened west of Helper, where 41-year-old Roy Bonuales of Helper was killed on impact, according to the Sun Advocate.

Carbon County Sheriff's deputies and the UHP responded to the crash site at about 1 p.m.

The Sun-Advocate reported that because of the steep, rugged terrain, the victim's body was recovered by a UHP helicopter shortly after 5 p.m. on Sunday.
