And one of the CMV’s is straddling the cable rail…
The crash happened when a driver of a car lost control
The milk truck jack knifes to avoid the car
Another CMV truck hits the milk truck broadside
The rest of the cars crash into the mess once stopped
Per @Jeffco Sheriff:

Per CSP at 8:14pm: Traffic Alert
Expect an extended closure on I70 JWO Golden
A total of eight cars, two of which are CMV’s with ruptured saddle tanks, have WB I 70 closed
Some good news, EB I70 is open at this location
Don’t try to sneak around on US40 or CO 74 as conditions are “wintry”
