CSP Trooper Hit During I-76 Stop as Suspect Flees in White BMW

Troopers are now searching for a white BMW M235i linked to the confrontation on I-76.

Overview

  • The stop occurred around 9:09 a.m. near mile marker 15 in north Commerce City after the driver allegedly failed to move over for a stopped emergency vehicle.
  • The driver refused orders, became combative as troopers tried to remove him, and a window on the BMW was broken during the struggle.
  • Investigators say the driver hit a trooper with the car and fled eastbound on I-76, exiting south onto Sable Boulevard toward 104th Avenue.
  • The struck trooper attempted to pursue but skidded into the concrete median due to weather and speed, disabling his patrol car, and he was taken to a hospital for evaluation of non-life-threatening injuries.
  • CSP says the suspect remains at large; a second trooper sought precautionary care and the case is under active investigation.
