AURORA | An unidentified man died in a three-car crash on I-225 in Aurora Friday evening, and two others were injured, police said.
The crash occurred at about 6 p.m. on northbound I-225, just north of East 17th Avenue, according to Aurora police spokesperson Matthew Wells-Longshore.
“The preliminary investigation revealed that a work van traveling north on I-225 rear-ended a Ford SUV, which then collided with the rear of an Infiniti SUV,” Wells-Longshore said in a statement. “The man driving the work van was transported to the hospital, where he was later died.”
The driver of the Ford SUV was taken to a nearby hospital and treated for minor injuries, police reported.
The man driving the Infiniti SUV was treated at the scene and released.
“Evidence at the scene indicated speeds were below typical highway travel speeds at the time of the crash,” Wells-Longshore said. “The cause of death remains undetermined pending investigation by the Adams County Coroner, who will also identify the driver.”
