On Saturday, Oct. 28 just after 11 p.m., CSPD responded to the crash on North Academy Boulevard at the intersection of East Platte Avenue. When officers arrived, they found one of the passengers, who was ejected from the vehicle and later identified as West, dead on the scene.

During the investigation, officers determined that an SUV traveling on North Academy Boulevard was attempting to turn left while another car, traveling southbound, was entering the intersection. The two vehicles collided and West, a passenger of the SUV, was ejected.

The other occupants of both vehicles were transported to the hospital for treatment of their injuries. Speed is considered a factor in the investigation, according to CSPD.
