Crash blocks traffic on north Nevada in northeast Colorado Springs
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) – Colorado Springs police are looking into what caused a crash that left traffic backed up on a busy road Sunday night.
It happened on Nevada, near Mt. View Lane, just south of the Nevada and Garden of the Gods intersection.
Police told 11 News it involved two cars and happened when one vehicle turned left in front of another vehicle. So far, they said they are not sure whether alcohol was a factor in the crash.
They said no one was taken to the hospital, but it did cause some backups, with a detour in place at Nevada and Winters drive.

LAS VEGAS (FOX5) — UNLV turned its student union plaza into a push to save lives as Nevada faces a need for organ donors.
University police and Nevada Donor Network hosted “Dogs, Donuts and Donate Life,” using K9 meet-and-greets and free donuts to get students and staff to stop by, learn about donation, and sign up on the spot.
“Partnering with police agencies, our first responders, is important here during Nationals April’s Donate Life Month because we can spread awareness about organ, eye, and tissue donation together as a trusted community source and also answer any myths or misconceptions, questions people might have about the donation process here in our community,” said Samantha Savalli of Nevada Donor Network.
