WELD COUNTY, Colo. — A Platteville police officer is on paid administrative leave after his patrol car, which had a woman inside, was hit by a train Friday evening.
According to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, a Platteville officer located the vehicle to make a traffic stop on US 85 and County Rd. 38. The driver of the vehicle, 20-year-old Yareni Rios-Gonzalez of Greeley, pulled to a stop just past the railroad tracks, with the patrol officer behind the car on the tracks.
While the officers cleared the suspect vehicle as part of the investigation, a Union Pacific train traveling northbound struck the Platteville patrol car, according to a CBI release. Platteville Police Chief Carl Dwyer said the officer is on paid administrative leave while CBI and Colorado State Police investigate.
