One dead in crash near Cotopaxi

One person is dead and two others were seriously hurt after a head-on crash in Fremont County Saturday.

It happened around 7:00pm, just east of Cotopaxi.

Colorado State Patrol says a 79-year-old man from Pueblo was killed. His name has not been released.

Patrolmen say he was driving a pickup truck that crashed into a Cadillac Escalade on Highway 50.

The driver and front-seat passenger of that vehicle were transported to the hospital for serious injuries.

Two children were also in the Escalade, but were not seriously hurt.

State Patrol is investigating the exact cause of the crash.
