WHEAT RIDGE, Colo. — Kipling Street reopened Tuesday afternoon after it was closed for nearly two hours for a crash that sent seven people to the hospital, said Wheat Ridge Police.
Three cars were involved in the crash at the intersection of Kipling Street and West 51st Place. The injuries were "significant but not life-threatening, and we're grateful for that," said Alex Rose, a Wheat Ridge Police spokesperson.
Kipling was shut down for almost two hours in both directions from West 50th to West 58th avenues as officers investigated the scene, Rose said. The initial crash happened around 2 p.m.
Wheat Ridge Police initially said the crash involved three vehicles, with three adults in one vehicle and four teens in the other. Police said that the at-fault driver in the car carrying the teens ran a red light.
Wheat Ridge Police said they will continue to update information about the crash.
