I-25 reopens after crash that injured truck driver
The driver of a tanker hauling butane has been injured in an accident after his truck rolled on Interstate 25 south of Pueblo.
The Colorado State Patrol says the cab of the truck caught fire, but the butane container was only damaged and did not explode in the accident Thursday morning.
The state patrol says the Rye Fire Department responded to the crash and contained the fire. The driver was taken to the hospital with unknown injuries.
Traffic in both directions was closed for hours while the butane was removed.
Southbound I-25 will close again Friday morning so that clean-up can continue.
