1 killed in crash that ignited car fire in northbound lanes of I-25 in Denver metro area
One person was killed in a crash that ignited a car fire in the northbound lanes of I-25 in the Denver metro area on Monday morning. According to the Colorado State Patrol, the crash happened in the northbound lanes of I-25 just south of 84th Avenue about 4:20 a.m. State troopers said the call originally came into the dispatch center as a car fire. When investigators arrived on the scene, they discovered the vehicle had crashed into the side highway wall and then burst into flames on impact. CSP said the crash involved one person in one vehicle. The identity of that person inside the vehicle has not been released. As of 7 a.m., the crash and fire had blocked two lanes of traffic heading northbound on I-25. That caused significant delays during the Monday morning commute. According to CSP, there was no estimate on when the lanes would reopen. Traffic was getting through the area, but there were backups due to the lane closures.

Marcus Morris arrest: Brother Markieff confirms situation, agent claims issue stems from unpaid casino debt
NBA veteran Marcus Morris was arrested Sunday on a fraud charge, Broward County booking records confirmed. Morris, 35, was apparently arrested at an airport due to "insufficient funds check," per the arrest information. While Morris has not commented on the situation, his brother, Markieff, confirmed the arrest, but claimed the fraud charge was "crazy." "The wording is crazy," Markieff said. "Damn for that amount of money they'll embarrass you in the airport with your family. They got y'all really thinking bro did some fraud s***. They could have came to the crib for all that. When y'all hear the real story on this s*** man. All I can say is Lesson learned. Bro will tell y'all tomorrow. This weird shit gave me a headache. Can't stop nothin!" Morris' agent, Yony Noy issued a response to Markieff's tweet. Noy attempted to clarify the situation, saying Marcus' arrest has nothing to do with a fake check. Noy claimed Morris was arrested over an unpaid credit with a casino. Noy called the arrest "absolutely insanity." Noy's full statement read: "Just so everyone understands this is zero fraud here or whatever crap outlets have said regarding fake checks or whatever the hell. This is due to an outstanding marker with a casino. Apparently if you have over $1,200 they can issue a warrant for your arrest. Absolute insanity!" Morris, a 13-year NBA veteran, saw time with a number of teams during his playing career. He spent four of his 13 seasons with the Los Angeles Clippers and three with the Phoenix Suns. He also saw time with six other franchises as a player. His final season in the NBA came in 2023-24, when he saw time with the Philadelphia 76ers and Cleveland Cavaliers. Morris appeared as a guest NBA analyst on ESPN during the offseason.
