COLORADO SPRINGS — On the morning of Sunday, October 27, the Colorado Springs Police Department responded to a call about a vehicle that had been struck by a train crossing South Sierra Madre Street.
Officers responded and found an unoccupied vehicle that had been hit by a train.
An initial investigation found that the driver had turned onto the train tracks as if to travel down them and got stuck. As a train approached, the driver got out of the vehicle and fled.
Officers located the driver shortly after and arrested Haleigh Micci for DUI.
No one was injured in this incident.
___
A feature on the I-25 noise wall that you can only notice when it snows
Is the mountain design on the I-25 south wall intentional? It comes out a bit, so when snow falls, it tends to pile up and look like a snowcap.
