A driver running a red light caused a two-car collision in Colorado Springs just ahead of the Tuesday morning rush hour. The accident occurred at Platte and Circle around 6 a.m.
According to police, one driver was heading eastbound on Platte while the other was making a right turn on Circle when the vehicles collided. The impact knocked one vehicle onto its side, while the other driver managed to pull into a nearby parking lot despite significant front-end damage.
The crash partially shut down eastbound Platte, but as of 7:15 a.m., a tow truck had arrived to move the overturned vehicle out of the way.
It's not yet clear which car ran the light.
