WELD COUNTY, Colo. — A Weld County Sheriff's Office deputy was injured Wednesday morning after a semitruck ran into a parked patrol vehicle, the Colorado State Patrol (CSP) said.

The crash closed all but one lane of southbound Interstate 25 for the investigation into what happened and the cleanup. The CSP Hazmat Unit had to address a fuel leak that occurred during the crash.
