A rollover wreck outside of Winter Park closed US Highway 40 in both directions for a brief period of time Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Two men sustained serious injuries in the wreck, thought their injuries were not thought to be life-threatening. The two were taken to Denver Health, according to Fraser Winter Park Police Chief Glen Trainor.<\/p>\n
Trainor explained the wreck happened when a white 2017 Dodge pickup truck was headed west on US 40, crossed over the center line and struck another white Dodge pickup head-on.<\/p>\n
The westbound truck then hit the retaining wall and rolled onto its roof. Trainor said that drugs and alcohol are not suspected factors in the incident.<\/p>\n
The investigation is ongoing, and the names of the two men hurt in the crash have not been released.<\/p>\n
The wreck closed both lanes for a short period of time before authorities opened alternating lanes of traffic. They had US 40 cleared and completely reopened by 1 p.m. Colorado State Patrol, Grand County EMS and East Grand Fire District also responded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
