AURORA, Colo. — Investigators have identified two people they said were responsible for organizing a “highway takeover” of southbound Interstate 225 in Aurora last month that left hundreds of cars stuck in the middle of the road.
One of those suspects is a teenager who has been issued a summons for reckless driving, driving a vehicle with a canceled license and engaging in a speed exhibition. Because he is of driving age but under 18, Aurora Police are not identifying him by name.
