Police said a vehicle that was traveling northbound rear-ended another vehicle. The crash sent the two vehicles over the center median and into southbound traffic, where two additional vehicles — including a FedEx truck — were struck.

Three drivers were taken to the hospital with unknown injuries, Commerce City police said.

Drivers are asked to avoid the area at this time. It is unclear when the roadway will reopen.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
