The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office says two separate crashes occurred the night Sen. Faith Winter was killed on I-25. A full reconstruction is underway.

With trick-or-treaters expected across the region from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Halloween, families and drivers are urged to take extra safety precautions.

Hosts should keep walkways clear and well-lit, and anyone celebrating with alcohol or cannabis is reminded to arrange a sober ride.
