Description
Quinndale Allen and daughter Leeanna Mayfield say their family is stranded in Denver after a fiery crash involving an Amazon truck on Interstate 70.
The Colorado State Patrol said Merdan Bekiyev lost control of his semitruck and crossed into oncoming traffic. Bekiyev’s truck and trailer came to rest in the eastbound lanes, blocking all the lanes as Allen’s car approached.
“Next thing I know, I see this Prime truck across the highway,” Allen said. “I had a split decision, hit the trailer or hit the truck, and I hit the truck.”
Allen and his seven passengers were heading home from Denver to Columbia, Missouri after visiting Colorado for a Juneteenth celebration.
