4 dead in pile-up crash in Colorado involving over 30 vehicles, including multiple semis: Police

High winds of up to 61 mph caused dust and near-zero visibility, leading to a 30-vehicle crash that killed four and hospitalized 29, authorities said.

  • Colorado State Patrol reported a multi-vehicle crash on Feb. 17, 2026, just after 10 a.m. on I-25 near Pueblo involving at least 30 vehicles and four fatalities.
  • Because of dust and high winds, CDOT spokesperson Amber Shipley said conditions possibly created `near brownout` visibility issues, while authorities say the cause remains under investigation.
  • UCHealth confirmed receiving 13 patients, Common Spirit health system took eight, and 29 people were transported to hospitals with injury extent unknown.
  • Colorado State Patrol's Vehicular Crimes Unit is investigating, and the Pueblo County Coroner's Office will release identities after next-of-kin notification, with no reopening timeline yet.
  • Updated reports now include statements from the Colorado State Patrol and Colorado Department of Transportation, with further details on injuries, causes, and reopening to follow as investigators continue work.
