This is the latest in a string of crashes in this area on I-25. South Metro Fire told Next last week, after a separate wreck, that this stretch could almost be referred to as the 'Bermuda Triangle.' Several big incidents seem to happen between Belleview Avenue and Arapahoe Road, without any apparent reason.
