“Police in Denver are investigating a two-vehicle crash in the HOV lanes on Interstate 25 early Sunday morning.”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
The provided evidence contains reports of various crashes on I-25 and other highways, but none match the specific details of a two-vehicle crash in the HOV lanes on a Sunday morning being investigated by Denver Police. One report mentions a woman killed on the shoulder on a Sunday, but this does not match the 'two-vehicle crash in HOV lanes' description.
