- Police in Colorado have arrested a Texas truck driver on suspicion of vehicular homicide on Friday after they said he triggered a fiery multi-vehicle crash that killed at least four motorists on a busy interstate highway near Denver.
The crash turned a stretch of Interstate 70, a major east-west highway, into a raging inferno on Thursday that involved at least 28 vehicles and may have damaged the road surface and an overpass, authorities said. “At that time of day we all know that I-70 can be very jammed,” police spokesman Ty Countryman told reporters near the scene. “He can’t stop, doesn’t stop and ends up colliding with several cars. And as a result of that the fire ensues.”
The local coroner was still working to identify the four confirmed victims, each of whom had been the sole occupant of their vehicles, Countryman said.
