The left lanes of I-25 are now open following a deadly traffic crash this morning.

The Colorado State Patrol says a 19-year-old man was killed after the car he was driving collided head-on with a FedEx truck around 4:30 a.m. near Ray Nixon Rd., mile marker 125.

According to troopers, the truck was traveling south in the southbound lanes when it crashed into a vehicle driving the wrong way on the interstate.

All southbound lanes of I-25 were closed at the Fountain-Security exit, after the fatal collision early Thursday morning, even after the crash was cleaned up.

The state patrol said the left lanes of the highway were open as of 10:00.
