Fatal accident shuts down southbound I-25 in Denver
Southbound Interstate 25 in Denver was temporarily redirected due to a tragic incident on Saturday morning that resulted in a fatality. The Denver Police Department reported that around 7 a.m., a person was struck and killed by a fleeing vehicle while changing a flat tire on the highway's right shoulder near the Alameda Avenue exit. Authorities are seeking a black Toyota 4Runner with specific damage, but no details were provided about the driver or the deceased individual. Traffic was detoured onto westbound 6th Avenue during the investigation, and all lanes were reopened by 10:25 a.m. A white tent was visible on a transportation camera near 6th Avenue, typically used by detectives to safeguard evidence or shield sensitive scenes from public view.
