SPRINGVILLE, Utah — A Good Samaritan and a train engineer helped avert catastrophe after a vehicle was hit by a train in Springville late Saturday.
A woman was driving across the railroad tracks at 400 North and 400 West when her car stalled, according to Springville Police.
When a driver behind the woman's vehicle noticed the delay, they jumped out and helped her swiftly escape before the SUV was struck and carried 100 yards down the tracks.
Springville Fire and Rescue also commended the train engineer.
"A great job by the BNSF Engineer also saved her life, due to his attentiveness and quick action. The BNSF supervisor said it is not normal to slow as fast and as safely as he did, feathering 5 engines brakes," the department shared on social media.
The railroad crossings at 400 North and Center Street were closed as police investigated the incident but have since reopened.
SPRINGVILLE, Utah (KUTV) — A bystander is being hailed as a hero after rushing to rescue a driver whose vehicle was stuck on railroad tracks moments before it was struck by an oncoming train.
The incident occurred sometime around 9:30 p.m. Saturday, April 12 at the 400 West railroad crossing at 400 North and Center Street, according to Springville Fire & Rescue officials.
Authorities said the vehicle had become lodged between the crossing arms on the tracks. The driver, who was the only occupant, hesitated to exit the car. In seemingly perfect timing, an unidentified bystander noticed the delay and ran to assist, helping the driver escape just seconds before the train struck the vehicle and dragged it nearly 100 yards down the tracks.
Emergency crews from Springville Fire & Rescue, locomotive engineers, BNSF Railway, and the Springville Police Department responded swiftly to the scene. A BNSF Railway supervisor said the train crew acted quickly, working attentively to slow the engine and feather five brakes in an effort to minimize impact.
In a light-hearted recap of the incident, Springville Fire crews wrote, “We discovered that even Fire Engine Engineers have heroes, Locomotive Engineers!”
No injuries were reported. Authorities have not yet identified the bystander who intervened.

(Leah Hogsten | The Salt Lake Tribune) Utah Valley Hospital in Provo, Feb. 7, 2023. A man shot by Springville police Saturday was taken to Utah Valley Hospital but succumbed to his injuries. An officer stabbed during the confrontation was also treated at the hospital.
Springville police officers shot and killed a man after authorities say he attacked an officer with a knife Saturday, according to a news release from the Springville Police Department.
One officer was also injured in the confrontation, according to police.
The police shooting unfolded after neighbors called police at around 10:25 p.m. that evening to report that a woman was screaming and crying.
When officers arrived, according to the news release, a man “abruptly” came outside and “attacked one of the officers with a large knife.”
Both officers at the scene, including the one hurt, drew and fired their weapons at the man, Springville police Lt. Warren Foster confirmed Tuesday.
Police said the officers treated the man until medical help arrived and he was taken by ambulance to Utah Valley Hospital before succumbing to his injuries.
The officer who the man attacked was also hospitalized with a stab wound, according to the news release. That officer was later released from treatment and is expected to recover.
Foster said the department isn’t immediately identifying the man or releasing more details about him at the request of his family. It’s unclear whether police intend to in the future.
The Utah County Metro “Officer Involved Critical Incident” team is investigating the Springville police shooting, as is protocol.
The two officers who opened fire on the man were both placed on paid administrative leave.

one designed to reframe downtown and the other to improve the community’s art presence
were each adopted by the city within the last two years
A new public art program looks to amplify both ideas at once
Springville announced a plan Tuesday to establish art loops in its city center — walkable paths that will link downtown landmarks to each other through “interactive art experiences” — a document detailing the plan states
The project will be supported by a $49,000 grant provided by T-Mobile’s Hometown Grant Program
“It’s just a really exciting project that’s going to further the goals of reframing downtown,” Springville Museum of Art Executive Director Emily Larsen told the Daily Herald
“It’s going to connect the art museum and the library and the civic center and all these areas of downtown.”
The goal is to implement a different piece of art every half block along three separate loops that weave their way through town
These art pieces will have digital material to help individuals interact with it
The “Yellow Route” will be designed for kids and families
library and civic center through the “Youth Art Walk” on 200 East
The “Blue Route” is 1.25 miles to walk and moves between the art museum and civic center on Main Street and 300 south
The “Red Route” is 3 miles and touches nearly every portion of downtown
offering pedestrians a chance to “experience the most public art and historic architecture,” the plan states
“You can walk through and have this interactive
engaging art experience that creates meaning and fosters connection,” Larsen said
There are 53 listed art projects that will be built over the course of four phases
The projects are split into eight themed areas: Urban arts
Phase 1 aims to be completed by February 2026
and includes roughly half of the planned projects
ranging from murals to sculptures and other smaller works
Larger projects are detailed in the later phases
One idea is to turn 200 South into “Festival Street” between 100 West and 100 East
decorating the street with additional public art and inserting performing art infrastructure
There are also ideas to build a “Water-Play Sculpture” at Contractor Legacy Park and a “Pop-Up Plaza” that can host shows along Main Street
These concepts won’t be finalized until the Springville City Council finalizes its budget in June
Arts and Recreation Board to allocate some of next year’s funding towards “Festival Street,” Larsen said
The other large projects remain more abstract
“The other things are probably further out
unless the right funding comes in and we get all the buy-in of our community and the city council to move forward quicker,” she said

Deputy Hogan observed a green Lexus ES3 pull into the parking lot and identified the driver as Christopher Inman
whose records indicated had an active civil warrant out of Lawrence County and a suspended and expired driver’s license
Dispatch confirmed the active civil warrant
Inman then drove the vehicle out of the parking lot
and Deputy Tillett initiated a traffic stop at the Dollar General parking lot
advised him of his suspended license and the civil warrant
Inman allegedly informed deputies that he had pills in his front pocket
A subsequent pat-down led to the consensual retrieval of a clear plastic bag containing pills
The pills were identified as six beige/brown oblong capsules with the imprint “G456” and one gold/orange oblong capsule with the imprint “G AMP XR 30.” According to Drugs.com’s pill identifier
both types of capsules are amphetamine and dextroamphetamine extended-release 30mg
A search of Inman’s vehicle reportedly yielded three cylindrical plastic containers
deputies located a pair of men’s pants
and inside the front pocket was an unlabeled Walmart prescription bottle containing a small amount of marijuana
Inman received a verbal warning for driving while suspended
He was transported to the Lawrence County Jail on the outstanding warrant and a new charge of possession of a legend drug
Inman’s father arrived to retrieve the vehicle

Utah — A suspect was killed and an officer was injured after a police response in Springville escalated to a shooting Saturday night
Springville Police said the incident began just before 10:30 p.m
when officers responded to reports of a woman crying and screaming in a neighborhood near 200 South 300 West
Once officers made contact and began their investigation
wounding the man before immediately rendering medical aid until paramedics arrived

It was a quiet Saturday night for Blake Everett
who lives across the street from where the shooting happened
“It started off with one shot,” Everett said Monday
“My fiancé was really worried; she thought they were shooting at the house
and she was telling everyone to get down,” Everett said
Everett and his family are still processing what happened
“I see the effect it’s had on my fiancé,” he said
“She really grieves for what we assume is the mother or wife — either way
Springville Police said Monday that two police officers are on leave
They had no further updates and declined to invterview on camera
“It’s definitely a humbling experience because you never really think that it could happen to you,” Everett said
A heroic act by an unnamed person helped prevent a tragedy on a railroad track in Springville on Saturday
A vehicle got stuck between the crossing gates at the railroad crossing at 400 West and 400 North on Saturday evening when a train was approaching and the driver delayed exiting
A person responded by helping the driver out of the car just before the train made impact with the vehicle and dragged it 100 yards
Springville Fire also lauded the efforts of the BNSF train engineer who noticed the vehicle on the tracks and hit his brakes
“A great job by the BNSF engineer (who) also saved her life due to his attentiveness and quick action,” a release said
“The BNSF supervisor said it is not normal to slow as fast and as safely as he did
The accident occurred next to a neighborhood
where resident and high school student Brenson Woodward said he was home watching “Criminal Minds” when he heard a loud blaring sound
pretty much never letting up on the horn,” Woodward told the Daily Herald
“And then it was almost like a cap gun going off
if you had a cap gun (next to you) and the cap popped — it was about that loud.”
Woodward said he saw emergency response vehicles rushing to the scene
He did not see which side of the road the car was crossing from
where there is a slight incline on the road before the tracks
“It’d probably be easier to stall going (west),” he said
The accident temporarily closed the 400 West railroad crossings at 400 North and Center Street
A resident who lives near the railroad tracks by the State Street crossing
was unaware of the accident but said over 20 years ago a truck was hit by a train on the same tracks near his house
and he always thought another collision would happen
“(This) is evidence that it did happen again
Lamb said he recalled being out in the yard with his children when he saw a truck get stuck on the tracks while trying to turn onto a dirt road as a train approached
“I saw the train coming and I had my children with me so I said
“So we ran to the back of the house and bam
That train hit the truck and pushed it down the little dirt road that was next to the railroad tracks
“We didn’t know if the truck was going to fly through the air or what
It just kind of crumpled it and pushed it down that dirt road over there.”
No injuries were reported in the accident Saturday night

But instead of polkaing our way through celebrations
A group of Springville filmmakers decided it was time to take the festivities to the silver screen, with a twist. We met up with Mike Buttino Jr. and Golden Groves of September Brother Productions at Joylan Theatre where they held the premiere. “Dyngus Day” is a folk-horror/comedy/slasher/holiday special
Guy moves away from his small town (which is everything Dyngus Day)
comes back home to find his long-lost love and then things take a turn
“The mayor of the town decided he wanted to make sure that his village is known throughout the world
“It has nothing to do with actual Dyngus Day,” said director Mike Buttino
“A history and tradition which the movie digs into for maybe a minute
But it has people talking about the holiday
"Dyngus Day" got into a festival in Germany
So their vision of bringing Dyngus Day to the world is coming to fruition

Central Bank has been a fixture of downtown Springville since it was built in 1892
a plan is in place to turn the aging structure back into its vintage self
Central Bank announced a construction and revitalization project of its downtown bank
fulfilling a long-held desire to rebuild the bank back into its 19th century form to be a pillar of the city
“I’m ecstatic,” Central Bank President Mark Packard said
“I’m really excited about being able to take a building back to the way that it looked back in 1892
It’s really a cool thing and we feel blessed to be able to do it.”
The current bank remains the same structure as its original self; however
modifications have rendered its appearance completely different
An extensive remodel in the 1940s removed the dome off the top of the building
replaced the brick exterior with ceramic tile and removed the rounded windows
The main entrance was also moved away from the street corner
The new structure will bring everything on the exterior back
including brick and stone facing and a dome on the top
The main entrance will be realigned with the street corner
a portion of the sidewalk along both Main Street and 200 South will be uncovered
and the bank will have window wells you can peer into from street level to see the basement floor
The two structures were built at the same time and acted as sister buildings
“We need to do it right and we try to do things right with whatever we do,” he said
“We want to pay honor because those buildings back in the day
took a lot of sacrifice to build because they were big buildings
We want to make sure that those people that were involved are proud of what we put up.”
The intricate stone carvings and masonry work of the original building was “just amazing,” Packard said
is using old photos to count out how many individual bricks there were and tasking artists with drawing out the detailed stone carvings that were depicted on the building
Those designs will then be recreated through 3D printers
we learn how detailed the craftsmanship of that time was
which was just phenomenal,” Central Bank Vice President Jeff Simonsen said
“It’s more skilled individuals that built that stuff and today you can’t replicate it.”
which will be carried out by Westland Construction
a second building will be built west of the bank
Ground will break on the second building in “two to three weeks,” Packard said
the bank will move its operations into the new building
The current building will then be deconstructed and rebuilt
Both buildings will ultimately hold banking operations
“All the people I have talked to are excited about the project,” Packard said
“They’re excited to be able to see the historic nature
see it brought back to the way it was originally.”
SPRINGVILLE — Springville's downtown area will receive some sprucing up and an art makeover after the city was awarded the T-Mobile Hometown Grant
The grant is a total of $49,000 that the city will use to install Art Loops: Downtown
an interactive public art experience that connects the Springville Museum of Art
the Springville Library and the Civic Center
"It is a really exciting public art project
a really innovative way to use public art to connect these different civic aspects in Springville," said Emily Larsen
From large-scale sculptures and wall murals to small stamped poetry in the concrete and sidewalk games
the art loops will display "all sorts of different public art" along the blocks of downtown between the buildings
"The whole idea is there will be some really large-scale
really impressive public art pieces and then a lot of little things that you'll discover along the way," she said
The art loops will include installations and activities while fostering community connection and enhancing walkability
Different areas will have thematic overlays to guide the design elements and aesthetics of the various sections
There are three planned routes for different experiences: one for families and kids, one for a short urban adventure, and a third that is "ideal for the wanderers, history buffs, book worms, and anyone who wants a major dose of art and a long walk," the museum's website says
A literary art walk will be installed between the museum and library on 100 East
and a youth art section featuring children's artwork will cover 200 East
A map of the art walking routes that will be part of Art Loops: Downtown in Springville
(Photo: Springville Museum of Art)The first phase of Art Loops: Downtown will be made up of small projects throughout the loops that create density
The first phase will be funded by the Hometown Grant
with future phases needing to secure funding from other sources
T-Mobile awards 25 grants to small towns with populations of 50,000 or less
T-Mobile has given grants to 375 communities across the country
people in communities nationwide are kickstarting projects that make a real difference and help their towns thrive," the company said in a release
The city applied for the Hometown Grant in December and found out just recently it was chosen as a recipient
"It's a really competitive national grant
and so we feel really honored our project was chosen to receive the funding
The mission of the grant goes hand in hand with what we are trying to do in Springville: creating a vibrant community that is connected and really embracing this small town feel that Springville has and making it a great place to live and to visit," Larsen said
The art loops will strengthen Springville's identity as "Art City," and transform the downtown area into a "vibrant
art-centered destination," Springville economic development specialist Carla Wiese said

support local businesses and provide residents with new opportunities for engagement with the arts
It's an exciting step forward in realizing the potential of our downtown area and establishing a truly dynamic environment that celebrates art in all its forms," Wiese said
the city is hosting a kick-off party for the first phase of the art loops at the Civic Center Park Gazebo
Springville residents and visitors are all encouraged to come learn about and celebrate the project
T-Mobile representatives will be presenting the grant check to the city
"I strongly believe that this project will have a lasting positive impact on Springville's cultural landscape and will help to further establish Springville as a thriving hub for the arts," Wiese added
The city and museum are already in the process of installing some of the artworks that will become part of Art Loops: Downtown
Others will be implemented throughout the year before next February when the first phase officially opens
Larsen said the Art Loops bring together the best of museums and public art and she is excited for everyone to be able to experience it
"Taking what's so magical about the museum and this history of art in Springville and spreading it all out
throughout the city and through downtown through this project
is gonna be really exciting," Larsen said

SPRINGVILLE — A Springville woman has a message for fellow Utahns after she said she spotted the truck and suspect involved in Monday’s Amber Alert
who asked to remain anonymous for safety reasons
said she and her husband were on a drive up the left fork of Hobble Creek Canyon Monday night when they saw a man and two young children
“We both commented on how odd it was that it’s getting late
it’s cold out to be out walking with the two littles in the middle of the road,” she said
She said a white truck was parked on the side of the road
“He did look worried,” she said
She thought he may have been concerned about his children walking near traffic
“Immediately as we passed and I asked my husband
‘What if that’s the man from the Amber Alert?,’ because there was that truck that we saw for like a split second,” she said
She admits she and her husband didn’t pay close attention to the alert when it came through earlier that day
was that they don’t pay too much attention because usually everybody concludes that it’s a couple who’s in a fight and one spouse got mad that the other took the kids,” she said
They didn’t have cell reception on the canyon road
so they couldn’t check their phones to see if this truck and man matched the alert’s descriptions
She remembered the alert came from Riverdale
“My stomach just dropped and I kept thinking about it
She said she and her husband had a lot of doubts
but we did wonder because it really was fitting of the description.”
They saw a police officer was now parked behind the truck
we don’t know if we should report this
we don’t know if it’s any of our business
but we did see a man with two little kids,'” she said
She said the officer confirmed it was the Amber Alert suspect
“It’s so important to trust our gut,” she said
The Utah County Sheriff’s Office said a tip led officers to finding these children and arresting Ricardo Trujillo Rojel
“This is an example of how the Amber system can work
and work really well and fast,” said Sgt
This witness said she will closely read descriptions and vehicle information from now on
“Definitely going to be paying attention to the vehicle descriptions
not just like a family problem that somebody is having
we don’t know the circumstance and we should be on the lookout because you don’t know
they might make it all the way down to where you’re living
and you can actually help,” she said
KSL saw investigators from multiple agencies back up at the scene Wednesday
where these children were found and Trujillo was arrested
SPRINGVILLE — Firefighters said a "citizen hero" helped save a driver whose vehicle became stuck on a railroad track as a train approached in Springville on Sunday
The Springville Fire Department said on social media the car became stuck on the railroad between arms at the 400 West railroad crossings at 400 North
and its occupant "delayed exiting the vehicle."
"Citizen hero recognized the delay and assisted the occupant to swiftly escape the vehicle just before it was struck and carried 100 yards," the post said
The department said the locomotive engineer quickly acted to give the occupant "enough time to escape the vehicle" by feathering five engine brakes
The railway supervisor said "it is not normal to slow as fast and as safely as he did," according to the post
"We discovered that even fire engine engineers have heroes
Firefighters also thanked Springville police for their "swift action" in the rescue
Police asked people to avoid the 400 West and Center Street railroad crossings while they investigate
As he addressed the dozens of children sitting inside a barn watching a sheep get sheared
Jim Jensen grabbed a handful of wool and inquired if anyone played baseball or softball
the Spanish Fork sheep farmer told the crowd that wool makes up the inside of a baseball
compressed it into his palm and let it reshape
“This is the only natural fiber that goes back immediately to the exact same shape,” Jensen said
it actually compresses or pushes on that wool
it flips back out to where it’s perfectly round
then it goes in a straight line and goes farther.”
The role of sheep wool in America’s pastime was one of many lessons Utah County second graders learned at Farm Field Days at Harward Farms in Springville Tuesday afternoon
The field trip is a semiannual activity put on by the Utah Farm Bureau with help from Future Farmers of America and Utah State University Extension that started in 1993
The springtime edition has occurred at Harward Farm for over 20 years
will filter through the farm across four days to learn about the usefulness of agriculture
north valley kids will experience the event at a different location
believes it’s important to show kids the experience of life on the farm
“There’s just a little bit of a disconnect,” he said
and everybody kind of knew a farm or worked on a farm
shows there are still operating farms in Utah
and that it’s important to have local producers of beef and veggies and fruit and all that kind of thing.”
kids rotated through 14 different stations offering different ag-related experiences
There was a talking tomato discussing produce
Kids petted goats and organizations presented how beef or honey is produced
“Our mission statement is ‘Opening our minds to the miracle of agriculture,'” Utah County Farm Bureau President David Robbins said
whether it starts from a seed or from a baby animal
Offering such an informative experience requires a lot of preparation
County Farm Bureau board members prepare six months in advance for the week
finding presenters and setting up logistics
A number of Utah State Extension workers and FFA kids from surrounding high schools volunteer to host the proceedings and direct the kids
where children watch a sheep get a haircut then learn why a tomato is a fruit
“There’s a lot of cool things that you can learn,” Robbins said
Falling tree limbs in Birmingham kills one person
(WBMA) — One man is dead and another man was detained after an altercation in Springville
A heavy police presence could be seen early Monday morning around apartments on Forman Street
According to Springville Police Chief Wayne Walton
Walton wouldn't say whether the altercation took place inside or outside of the apartments and would not release any details about the altercation at this time
He confirmed one man is deceased and another man was detained by police
Walton said there is no danger to the community
Walton would not initially comment on the manor of death due to the ongoing investigation
Walton confirmed 47-year-old Adam Cornelius was arrested in connection to the incident
Cornelius is charged with murder involving a gun
Both men are reportedly residents of Springville
Walton confirmed one of the men lived in the apartments
Turner said he called 911 when he heard the altercation
"My wife and I and my in laws were over here
it was about 9 o'clock," Turner described
"It was kinda alarming because we have a 15 day old baby
providing a sense of relief in what is typically a quiet neighborhood
"I felt once they showed up on scene everything was fine," said Turner
Turner said he was shocked when he heard what happened
"It makes me feel like nowhere is as safe as it seems
the local law enforcement in Springville does a great job
We will be up with the baby and we will see a police officer drive down the street so I know it's well taken care of in this area so I am not too worried about it
It does alarm me a little bit knowing we've got little kids in here and my kids run around and play out here all the time
fortunate enough this happened at night and not during the day so I didn't have to worry about them being out here."
The name of the victim and the person detained have not yet been released
stating he talked to family members of the victim
"Seeing them in the distress they were in and how it affected them
I couldn't image seeing my father laying like that or anything like that."
"My heart goes out to them," added Turner
"I couldn't imagine being in their shoes."
Police are still collecting evidence and law enforcement agencies are still investigating

and the Orioles own a 27-7 first-half rebounding advantage
The Gazette offers audio versions of articles using Instaread
Rowan Jacobi grew up a fangirl of the Springville girls’ basketball program
When the Orioles were state-tournament regulars from 2015 through 2019
she didn’t miss a game at Wells Fargo Arena
“I cried when they lost (in the 2015 championship game),” she recalled
her mood brightened when things turned out better the next three years
Jacobi was brilliant (again) Wednesday night
16 rebounds and seven assists as seventh-ranked Springville topped No
in a Class 1A girls’ basketball regional final at West High School
“This is for you,” Jacobi pointed toward Springville alum Mikayla Nachazel
a cornerstone in the Orioles’ 2015-18 glory years
which ended with state championships three times
This is the biggest dream I’ve ever had,” the University of South Dakota-bound junior said
“It’s something I’ve wanted to do forever
Springville (20-4) advances to the state tournament for the 10th time (all since 2008)
3 Newell-Fonda (20-4) in the first round at 6:45 next Wednesday night
but it’s been a long three years,” Coach Christina Zaruba said
Renee Brecht added 13 points and seven rebounds
Addison Merritt and Lexi Dietiker scored 10 apiece
And the Orioles amassed a 43-23 rebounding margin
including a mind-blowing 27-7 in the first half
“It helped that we were a little bigger,” the 6-foot-2 Jacobi said
Brecht scored six of the Orioles’ first eight points
then Jacobi got going and it was 35-23 at halftime
“I had a lot of adrenaline,” Brecht said
“This is better than anything I’ve ever felt before
Sigourney (19-6) got within nine points twice late in the third quarter
but the Orioles scored the final seven points of the period
Freshman Brynn Clarahan led Sigourney with 16 points

A man was shot and killed by police Saturday night after allegedly stabbing an officer with a knife
The officer was treated for the wound but will recover
according to a Springville Police Department news release
Officers were dispatched to a residence at 180 S
after neighbors reported a woman screaming and crying
Police made contact with the woman and were investigating the incident when a man abruptly exited the residence and reportedly attacked an officer with a large knife
Officers drew their weapons in response and fired to defend themselves
Officers offered medical aid until medical responders arrived
The man was taken to Utah Valley Hospital but did not survive
The man’s name is not being released at this time
The attacked officer was reportedly taken to the hospital

But the Red Devil loss to Spanish Fork in the 2024 5A state championship series is now ancient history
It’s the 2025 Springville team’s turn to make its mark
The Red Devils started the season off the way they wanted to
using a big third inning to pull away and eventually beat Timpanogos
Springville plated a couple of runs in their first at-bat
but found that small lead in danger when the Timberwolves put beginners in with just one out
But Red Devil pitcher Brooklynn Richardson got a strikeout and a popout to end the threat and keep Springville in front
The visitors found themselves in the opposite position in the top of the third with no one on and two outs
they put together a game-changing series of plays to seize control
Another walk loaded the bases and Springville was in business
Ava Brunger came through with the first big hit
After a single from rightfielder Sami Dellamas to load the bases again
Tyler Haveron added to the scoring with another RBI single
not with Morgan Fairbourne coming up to the plate
Springville added one more run on another single before a flyout ended the inning
Timpanogos came back with some big hits off their own in the bottom of the third inning
A walk and a sacrifice grounder put a Timberwolf runner in scoring position
abs senior shortstop Kelci Gingras bright here in with a single
Timpanogos sophomore pitcher Shaylie Lang then drilled a double off the centerfield fence that just missed being a home run
The Timberwolves got one more RBI single in the frame to cut the deficit to 9-3
but that would be as close as they would get
and another in the sixth off an RBI single from 21
Timpanogos did get a couple of runs in the bottom of the seventh but couldn’t erase the big deficit
Springville (1-0) is scheduled to play at American Fork on Wednesday
while Timpanogos (0-1) will host the Cavemen on Thursday
Both games are scheduled to begin at 3:30 p.m
