BOULDER, Colo. — A teen is being charged with multiple counts including vehicular homicide and DUI in an April 9 crash that killed two people in Boulder, the 20th Judicial District Attorney's Office said.
The crash was reported around 11:20 p.m. on Foothills Parkway near Valmont Road, Colorado State Patrol (CSP) said.
A 17-year-old girl driving a Dodge pickup was going south in the northbound lanes of Foothills Parkway when she crashed head-on into a Subaru going north, according to CSP. The Subaru was then pushed into the right lane and rear-ended by a Honda sedan being driven by a 65-year-old woman.
The driver and passenger of the Subaru died. They were identified by the Boulder County Coroner's Office as 33-year-old Ori Tsioni and 49-year-old Gregoria Morales Ramirez.
The driver of the Dodge and the driver of the Honda also suffered serious injuries, according to CSP.
