COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) - A major southern Colorado highway is back open after a deadly crash.

The Colorado Springs Police Department reports around 1 a.m. Wednesday, a woman walking on southbound I-25 near the MLK Bypass was hit and killed by a semi-truck. The truck driver stayed on scene, and drugs, alcohol and speed do not appear to be factors.

The area was closed for several hours as police investigated, but reopened around 4:30 a.m.

This crash is one of three deadly crashes that happened overnight from Tuesday night to Wednesday morning: One person was hit and killed after a hit-and-run crash in northeast Colorado Springs Tuesday night and a motorcyclist was killed in a crash near UCCS Tuesday night.
