    One person died and several others were injured in an early Sunday morning crash on U.S. 85 in Brighton, police said.

    The crash happened at about 12:30 a.m. Sunday, near the intersection of U.S. 85 and Weld County Road 2.5, according to a news release from the Brighton Police Department.

    A Ford SUV driving westbound on the county road ran a stop sign and was hit by a GMC SUV traveling northbound on U.S. 85, police said in the release.

    Two people inside the Ford were ejected, and two others fled the scene on foot, police said.

    One of the people ejected from the Ford died at the scene of the crash, and paramedics took the other to the hospital with serious injuries, according to the release. Paramedics also took an unspecified number of GMC passengers to hospitals.

    Investigators believe the victim killed in the crash, who has not been publicly identified, may have been hit by a third vehicle on the highway. The unidentified driver left the scene of the crash, police said.

    The victim will be identified by the Weld County Coroner’s Office at a later date.

    Brighton police found the two Ford occupants who fled the scene on foot shortly after they ran, according to the release. One was taken to the hospital with unknown injuries.
