Trooper William Moden was struck and killed yesterday by a vehicle while assisting at the scene of an earlier crash on I-70 near mile marker 324 in Deer Trail, Colorado.

He was checking on the occupants of one of the involved vehicles when another car struck him at approximately 9:40 pm. Another trooper on the scene immediately began providing medical care. Trooper Moden was flown to the University of Colorado Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries early the following morning.

Trooper Moden had served with the Colorado State Patrol for 12 years.

Godspeed Trooper Moden, may your friends and family both blood and blue find peace and solace. We’ll see you on the other side brother.
