AURORA, Colo. — A vehicle going about 120 mph lost control and crashed Sunday on Interstate 225, resulting in the death of one of the occupants, according to the Aurora Police Department (APD).
Officers responded to the single-vehicle crash before 1 a.m. Sunday on southbound I-225 just south of East Colfax Avenue, according to an APD news release.
The initial investigation showed that the vehicle, a 2005 Subaru WRX, was going about 120 mph when the driver lost control and crashed. None of the three occupants was wearing a seat belt, and all of them were ejected, APD said.
Two adult occupants were injured and treated at a hospital. The third victim, a female of undetermined age, died as a result of her injuries, according to police.
