I-25 closed in both directions near Harmony Road
A crash was reported on northbound I-25 south of the Harmony Road exit at 5:13 p.m. Thursday, according to the PulsePoint app that tracks responses by fire and emergency medical personnel.
At 7:01 p.m., units responded to a medical emergency on southbound I-25, but the app did not provide an exact location.
Earlier Thursday, a crash was reported at 2:21 p.m. on the southbound side near the Mountain Vista exit.
All three incidents were still listed as active as of 7:45 p.m.
The Colorado Department of Transportation website reports that I-25 is closed in both directions south of Harmony Road due to a crash, but no further information about the incidents is available from the public social media accounts of the Colorado State Patrol, Poudre Fire Authority, Fort Collins Police Services or the Larimer County Sheriff's Office.
CDOT traffic cameras show vehicles backed up between the Harmony and Colorado 392 exit. Another camera on the southbound side of Harmony Road showed a law enforcement vehicle blocking the road and all traffic being diverted to the exit.
Google traffic maps showed northbound traffic was either shut down or stalled starting from north of Crossroads Boulevard to Harmony Road.
Southbound traffic was either shut down or stalled from north of Prospect Road to Colorado Highway 392, which is the Windsor exit.
This is a developing story that will be updated as more information becomes available.

Crashes involving commercial vehicles become big concern in Colorado, more than 1,200 in six months
Colorado State Patrol says crashes involving commercial trucks are becoming a big concern. According to their data, between Jan. 1, 2024, and June 30, 2024, there have been 1,270 crashes involving commercial vehicles. In 2025, during the same time period, there were 1,188 crashes involving commercial vehicles. CSP says both the driver and the CMV operators are to blame for this dangerous trend. This comes from a combination of distracted driving, speeding and crossing lanes too fast. A majority of these crashes are reported along I-70. This highway has been ranked the worst highway in the state for these crashes. CSP says if you are traveling through the high country, the weather is often to blame. If you are traveling within city limits, it's a mix of flat and hilly land. Let's break down these statistics even further. CSP says 60% of non-fatal crashes are usually the commercial operator's fault. It's important to remember to always get adequate sleep and never drive more than 11 hours without at least ten hours off. CSP says 66% of fatal crashes involve a regular driver being at fault. One quarter of that 66% is caused by impairment. CSP says drivers need to stop cutting off commercial vehicles and driving in their blind spots. Regardless of the driver, CSP stressed that leaving space between vehicles can prevent all of these crashes. "If the car speeds up to cut in front of a truck, it doesn't give enough distance if traffic decides to suddenly stop," said Captain John Hahn, Commander for Motor Carrier Unit at Colorado State Patrol. "It does not provide enough time or distance to be able to stop before it collides into the back of the vehicle." So far in 2025, authorities say there has been a 6.5% drop in commercial crashes. CSP says the number should be zero since these crashes are always preventable.

Colorado State Patrol investigating fatal rollover crash on I-70
The Colorado State Patrol is investigating a crash on Thursday that claimed the life of one person. Authorities said a black Lexus SUV was traveling east in the westbound lanes of I-70 around 4:44 p.m. when it crashed near milepost 198 west of Frisco. The SUV reportedly rolled and ejected the driver. The driver was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced deceased. Although the official cause of the crash remains to be determined, officials said heavy rain was reported at the time of the crash. I-70 was shut down in both directions for about 20 minutes due to the crash, but one eastbound lane has since reopened. CSP said the westbound lanes will remain shut down for approximately three hours. They encouraged drivers to avoid the area while the scene is under investigation.
