PUEBLO COUNTY, COLO. -- Colorado State troopers said a woman died Thursday morning in a crash at the intersection of 36 Lane and Highway 50B in Pueblo County.
According to troopers, the woman was in a Mazda sedan and was driving north on 36 Lane. She entered the intersection of Highway 50B, where a Schwans truck headed east on the highway crashed into her driver's side.
Troopers said the impact sent both cars east. The man in the truck was taken to Parkview Hospital with unknown injuries, and the woman died at the scene.
Troopers said she was wearing a seatbelt. They didn't say which driver was at fault, but drivers on the highway do not have to stop at that intersection.
Highway 50C was used as a detour while crews cleared the scene.
