On February 2, 2020 at 1:16 AM, Aurora Police and Fire responded to a two-vehicle crash on eastbound Colfax Ave. between Laredo St. and Airport Blvd. On scene they found that a 1996 Cadillac had been driving westbound in the eastbound lanes and crashed head-on into a Ford Explorer pickup. The female driver of the Cadillac, who was not wearing her seat belt, died as a result of her injuries. The driver of the Explorer was transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. It is unknown why the Cadillac was driving westbound in the eastbound lanes of Colfax.
