The multi-vehicle pileup on eastbound at West 6th Ave. and N. Kalamath Street was first reported shortly after 5:30 a.m. Friday to Denver police.
“I saw the big pile of cars coming right there and then when I tried stop, you just sled – you couldn’t stop. There was not stopping,” said Anthony Mendoza, a driver who was involved in the crash. “You just hit right in front of you, cars [were] hitting us from behind. It was a big mess. It was horrible.”“It was more scary knowing you can’t stop,” he said.
“I was on my way to work and I come up over the hill on 6th and there was a bunch of cars piled up,” Cessna said. “I tried my best to stop, but it wasn't working out, [I] slid into a dump truck, got hit like four more times, truck’s gone. My driver’s side door is basically in my seat now. Truck’s gone, it’s crazy. I'm alright though, so I guess everything's okay.”
Doug Schepman, a spokesperson with the police department, told Denver7 it sounded like most of the injuries were minor though some may have been serious.
