COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KOAA) — A driver is lucky to have walked away from a crash Monday with minor injuries following a collision with a train.
The Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD) says the call for service came in just before 8:00 a.m. on Monday along East Fillmore Street near North Stone Avenue.
The driver, whose name was not released, was cited for careless driving at the scene.
The crash shut down one lane of eastbound Fillmore Street while crews worked to clear the scene.
