GOLDEN, Colo. (CBS4) - Colorado State Patrol responded to a deadly crash on U.S. 6 Saturday morning. Investigators preliminarily said the woman jumped, but now say it's unclear if she was pushed or left the vehicle on her own. The incident happened at around 2:30 a.m.
The investigation closed the highway between Golden and Highway 119. CSP says the highway reopened at around 11 a.m.
CSP tells CBS4 the woman is a 45-year-old woman and was the passenger in the vehicle. A 61-year-old man was the driver and only other person in the vehicle.
