WHEAT RIDGE, Colo. — Northbound lanes of Kipling Street in Wheat Ridge were closed after a box truck rolled over near I-70 Frontage Road South, Wheat Ridge Police reported around 7 p.m. Thursday.
No one was seriously injured, but four people were taken to the hospital "as a precaution," police said.
Police advised avoiding the area as they investigate. Officials said all lanes had reopened around 8:40 p.m.
Wheat Ridge police said Friday they believe the truck's brakes failed as the driver was trying to exit I-70, and that no criminal charges were warranted.
"The driver went across a grassy shoulder to avoid parked cars and tried to continue onto Kipling St. before tipping over," a Wheat Ridge PD post said.
