Our thoughts and prayers are with the Johanson family at this time. 

We’re learning more about 4-year-old Lila Johanson, who died after a car crashed into a tree in Salt Lake City Wednesday night.

“We were met in the parking lot by two Salt Lake City Police Officers who were very gracious in sharing the news,” said Kevin Johanson, Lila’s grandfather. “She's a very pure spirit and a very special spirit that we got to have.”

It was around 10 o’clock on 27th South when police say Lila’s mother, Alexa Johanson, was driving west, veered in the opposite lanes, jumped a curb and hit a tree.
