AROUND THE COUNTRY COMMERCE CITY, CO. “This has to stop”: Drunk driver injures four first responders in Commerce Colorado working an accident on I-76. A tragic collision on Interstate 76 in Adams County, Colorado, on the night of December 7, in which four first responders were struck and injured by a suspected drunk driver, has caused an uproar in the community surrounding responsible driving. The first responders — two Commerce City police officers and two South Adams County firefighters — were hit by the DUI driver while ironically attending to a separate DUI crash investigation. The incident has since prompted a fervent plea from law enforcement and firefighting agencies for the public to abstain from driving under the influence. According to police officials, the suspected drunk driver, identified as 24-year-old Benjamin Winters of Brighton, drove through barricades and struck the four responders who were working outside their vehicles at the scene. The first responders had set up a traffic accident management zone on I-76, with a fire truck blocking two lanes of traffic and other vehicles directing drivers to pass on the right shoulder. Despite these safety measures, Winters reportedly drove around the left side of the fire truck and into the closed lanes. Commerce City Police Chief Darrel Guadnola expressed frustration during a news conference the following day. “This driver, for whatever reason, found a small opening between the left shoulder and the back of the fire apparatus and decided to go around the left instead of the right, at which time he struck the four individuals who were working,” the chief stated. The injured first responders were rushed to the hospital by their colleagues. One firefighter underwent surgery, while the other three sustained injuries of varying degrees. “This has to stop,” Commerce City Manager Jason Rogers said during the news conference. “We as a community have to come together. We have to make the wise decisions. We have to be vocal. We have to be present. And we need to make sure we’re thinking about the safety of all of our members of our community at all times.” Colorado State Patrol Master Sergeant Gary Cutler noted the persistent issue of drunk driving across the state: “We’ve talked, we’ve talked and we’ve talked, and nobody’s listening here. It comes down to laziness and being self-absorbed. There’s no reason that anybody needs to be drinking and driving.” 46 The Blues - January ‘24
