Colorado Trooper Struck and Killed on Highway During Blizzard

The Wednesday March 13, 2019 death of Cpl. Daniel Groves marks the fourth time a Colorado State Patrol trooper has been killed on the state's roads since 2015.

The 52-year-old corporal was helping the driver of a vehicle that slid off Interstate 76 near Roggen when he was struck by a driver CSP believes was likely driving too fast for the conditions.

The driver was taken to Platte Valley Medical Center with moderate injuries. He hasn't been charged with a crime, but a CSP spokesperson says the investigation is ongoing.
