BOULDER, Colo. – The Boulder Police Department is seeking more information about a car crash that seriously injured one driver on Saturday.

At approximately 8:12 a.m. on Feb. 18, Boulder Police and Boulder Fire-Rescue responded to a two-vehicle crash near Arapahoe Avenue and Conestoga Street.

A Tesla Model 3 was driving eastbound on Arapahoe Ave when a Subaru Crosstrek traveling westbound on Arapahoe turned left in front of the Tesla. The vehicles collided in the intersection and then the Subaru struck a power pole at the southeast corner. The Subaru driver— a 31-year-old male —was extracted by Fire-Rescue personnel and transported to the hospital with significant injuries.
