7 rushed to hospital after car crash in western part of Denver metro area

Seven people were rushed to the hospital early Tuesday afternoon after a crash involving three vehicles at Kipling Street and 51st Place just north of Interstate 70. That's close to the border separating Wheat Ridge and Arvada in the western part of the Denver metro area.

Wheat Ridge police said at 2 p.m. that Kipling Street was shut down in both directions between 50th and 58th Avenue while an investigation into the crash took place. The road reopened after the crash investigation and cleanup. 

Police said that there were three vehicles involved and there were four teens in one car. Investigators said the teen driver was at fault for running a red light. 

Three other adults in the other two vehicles were involved. 

None of the injuries to the victims are life-threatening but considered serious.
