Units from Poudre Fire Authority and UCHealth EMS were dispatched to the scene after the crash, initially reported as non-injury, escalated when a male involved began experiencing leg pain. Emergency personnel responded promptly and assessed the individual on-site for injuries consistent with a vehicle collision.
The man’s condition required routine medical attention, though his injuries were not deemed life-threatening at the time of evaluation. Responders noted the call location as a commonly traveled junction near the southern edge of Fort Collins, where traffic from I-25 and nearby service roads can contribute to congestion and heightened collision risk.
