Highway worker, Colorado State Patrol cruiser struck in 6-car hit-and-run crash in Adams County
A Colorado Department of Transportation contractor and a state trooper are in the hospital after a six-car crash in Adams County Sunday morning and now a man is in jail, facing multiple charges connected to the crash. It happened just before 2 a.m. in the eastbound lanes of Highway 36 near Pecos Street, just north of Denver. Colorado State Patrol says the driver, now identified as 28-year-old Bryan Granillo, struck a CSP cruiser from behind, pinning the highway worker. Granillo then allegedly tried to flee the scene. A second CSP trooper performed what the agency called a "tactical vehicle intervention" to stop the car. Granillo was arrested at the scene and taken to the Adams County Jail.

The trooper and highway worker were taken to the hospital and have since been released.
