GRANITE — Two people have died in separate crashes in Colorado this weekend.
The Colorado State Patrol said one woman died after a sport utility vehicle rolled and landed in the Arkansas River on U.S. 24, about a mile north of Granite, on Saturday morning. It wasn’t immediately clear how many people were in the SUV or what caused the crash.
About 5:30 p.m. Friday, troopers said, 65-year-old Herbert E. Wagner of Keenesburg died when his southbound car collided with a northbound car on Weld County Road 65. He wasn’t wearing a seat belt.
Troopers said alcohol may have contributed to the crash.
The driver of the northbound car suffered serious injuries, and her passenger had minor injuries.
