WELD COUNTY - One person was killed and 10 injured in a crash involving a tanker truck, a van and a car.


The crash happened around 2:15 p.m. Wednesday in Weld County just east of Longmont on County Road 24.

Police think a Toyota Camry traveling eastbound on CR 24 ran a stop sign or failed to yield before colliding with a Plymouth Voyager minivan, which was headed southbound on County Road 19. The impact pushed both cars into the front end of a tanker truck that was stopped.

A passenger riding in the minivan, 40-year-old Joann Leonard of Johnstown, was killed in the crash. The other four people inside the van were hospitalized, along with all six people in the Camry.

The identities of all others involved, and their conditions, including Joann Leonard's two daughters, released by the Colorado State Patrol, are as follows:

Occupants of the Toyota Camry: All are from Boulder, CO

Driver: Prem Shrestha, 33 / Minor injuries / Released from Longmont United
Udaya Bista, 34 / Minor injuries / Released from Longmont United hospital
Anjila Bista, 8 / Minor injuries / Released from Longmont United hospital
Aliza Bista, 4 / Minor injuries / Released from Longmont United hospital
Lasata Shrestha, 4 / Minor injuries / Released from N. Colo. Med. Center
Jagadish Panday, 37 Minor injuries / Released from Good Samaritan hospital
Occupants of the Plymouth mini van:

Driver: Bartholemew Alvarado, 78 of Northglenn / Moderate injuries / North Colorado Medical Center.
Makanzie Leonard, 14 of Johnstown, CO / Minor injuries / North Colorado Medical Center.
Mattie Alvarado, 75 of Northglenn / Serious injuries / Denver Health Medical Center.
Stephanie Leonard, 16 of Johnstown / Serious injuries / N. Colo. Med. Center
The driver of the gasoline tanker, 46-year-old Jay Eachus, was not injured.

Three helicopters responded and airlifted some of the patients to hospitals. Others were transported on the ground.

CSP is continuing to investigate whether the children involved were wearing seatbelts, the speed of the vehicles at the time of the crash and whether alcohol or drugs were involved

My guess is that the driver is distracted and ran the red light. There were three kids and two adults in a small car. By US standards, the car is definitely over laoded, not sure what the legal limit is in a 4 passenger car. Also I assume 2 of the 4 year olds were on a child seat which takes a significant space in the back seat.

I am glad no one got hurt seriously in a camry, specially the children.

Sorry for the one who lost his life. Now his/her family could be pressing hard if the camry was indeed at fault.

yes, if you have 2 child 'car seats' there would be hardly any room for other people in back seat.

Accident was pretty bad, i've heard. They guy who wons the car wasn't driving, but he's the one who got hurt the most. He has permanent Hip injury and can't move. They are hardworking Nepalis. They seek equal attention as any other Nepali who has from Sajha when bad things happened to them. I urge everyone to help this poor family.
