A steel beam went into the windshield of an SUV Tuesday afternoon during a three-vehicle accident that closed the northbound lanes of Interstate 25 at Alameda Avenue for almost four hours.
Detective John White, a spokesman for the Denver Police Department, said the accident happened at about 3:20 p.m.
White said the only injury was to a woman in her 30s who was rushed to the hospital with head wounds. She remains in critical condition.
The woman was driving an SUV behind a semi-trailer which was carrying beams that seemingly extending farther than the truck bed. The semi-trailer stopped and the beam hit the windshield of the SUV, according to the Denver Fire Department. A sedan then hit the back of the SUV.
The investigation is ongoing.
