COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KOAA) — An early-morning crash closed a busy road Thursday morning just outside of the UCCS campus.
The crash was reported just before 3:30 a.m. along N. Nevada Avenue, on the part of the roadway that leads to Dublin Boulevard near I-25, close to the South Pulpit Rock Trailhead.
One woman was seriously injured, and the male driver is expected to be okay. Police say that speed is believed to be a factor.
The road was fully open hours later.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Early into the investigation police told News5 they had reason to believe this was a suspected DUI crash, however they later provided an update on their online blotter stating that speed is a potential factor.
