Colorado State Patrol Needs Assistance in Northern Colorado Road Rage Case

CSP -

On Monday, April 21, 2025, at approximately 1:13 a.m. Colorado State Patrol Troopers responded to northbound Interstate 25 near milepost 250 (Berthoud) for a road rage incident. Initial reports show a maroon Kia Sorento, with a Colorado temporary tag 7282363, was traveling northbound on Interstate 25 straddling the center line of both lanes. A motorist driving a Subaru Legacy approached the Sorento from behind and honked. The Sorento moved into the left lane as the Subaru passed in the right lane. The Sorento then began to follow the Subaru closely, before backing off and shining a laser light at the driver of the Subaru. The Subaru left I-25 at Exit 250 (Berthoud). The driver of the Sorento also took Exit 250 and, while doing so, fired multiple rounds from a firearm at the Subaru. One round went through the glass of the back window and into the passenger compartment of the Subaru, hitting the driver's seat. The Sorento then fled from the scene. The driver of the Subaru was not injured.

This is an ongoing investigation with the Colorado State Patrol. The involved Kia Sorento is listed as stolen out of Denver. If you see or recognize the vehicle, please contact 911 or Colorado State Patrol dispatch at (303) 239-4501.
