COMMERCE CITY - Police believe alcohol may have played a factor in an April 27 accident that seriously injured one individual.
Commerce City Police Lt. Chuck Saunier said the driver of a westbound 1994 Jeep Wrangler was attempting to make a left turn into the Aspen Hills town homes complex in the 14700 block of East 104th Avenue, about 1:30 p.m., when the vehicle was struck by an eastbound 2007 Nissan Xterra.
Saunier said the impact of the collision caused both vehicles to roll.
The driver of the Jeep, a 35-year-old man, was taken by helicopter to Denver Health with serious injuries. The driver of the Nissan, a 30-year-old woman, was transported by ambulance to Denver Health with minor injuries. There were no updates on the man’s condition.
