An Iowa man is facing three counts of aggravated murder in Utah, where authorities say he killed three women. The Utah Department of Public Safety said Thursday that the man killed one woman, stole her vehicle then drove it to a trailhead and killed two other women before fleeing in one of their vehicles. He was arrested early Thursday in southwestern Colorado. Authorities say there’s no indication the suspect knew the women. A public defender representing the man in Colorado declined to comment Thursday. The Associated Press left a message with a Utah public defender's office regarding the charges in that state.
