COLORADO SPRINGS — South Academy Boulevard at Hancock Expressway reopened after a five-hour closure as authorities investigated a two-vehicle fatal crash early Thursday morning, according to the Colorado Springs Police Department.

The department's Major Crash Team took the lead of the investigation. The intersection reopened around 6:45 a.m. with traffic moving through shortly after.
