Brownout winds trigger 30-vehicle I-25 crash near Pueblo, 4 dead

A multi-vehicle crash on I-25 south of Pueblo, involving about 30 vehicles including six semis and horse trailers, left four people dead and 29 injured. High winds created dirt and brownout conditions with very low visibility. Northbound I-25 was closed at mile 93 and southbound at mile 94 after the 10 a.m. crash near Pueblo Boulevard; a secondary crash occurred in the southbound lanes. Southbound lanes reopened around 2 p.m., with a longer closure likely for the northbound side as investigators cleared the scene.

I-25 Hazmat Cleanup: Southbound Closure After Tanker Crashes

An overturned diesel fuel tanker on southbound I-25 in Castle Pines led to a closure for hazmat cleanup, with two right lanes still closed as of 12:10 p.m. The crash occurred at 2:21 a.m., resulting in a large diesel fuel spill and serious injuries to the driver. Crews worked to stop the fuel leak, with hazmat personnel containing about 2,500 gallons of the 9,000-gallon capacity tanker. The cleanup effort involved drilling holes into the damaged tank to siphon the fuel into a new tanker, and the road was partially reopened by midday.
