A driver died early Monday morning in a fiery crash on northbound Interstate 25 near Thornton, according to the Colorado State Patrol.
Firefighters responded to the crash on northbound I-25, just south of 84th Avenue, at 4:18 a.m. Monday, according to Adams County Fire Rescue.
A car hit the highway’s side wall and caught fire on impact, fire officials said.
One person was inside the car at the time of the crash and died from their injuries, state patrol spokesperson Gabriel Moltrer said.
The victim will be identified by the Adams County Coroner’s Office.
The crash and emergency responders are blocking the two right lanes of northbound I-25 between U.S. 36 and exit 219 for 84th Avenue, according to the Colorado Department of Transportation.
There is no estimated time for when the lanes will reopen, Moltrer said.
