The Greeley Tribune reported that witnesses saw the car speed off the road in Greeley just before 6 a.m. Monday. The lake is surrounded by a 50-foot embankment so firefighters weren’t able to get into the lake for about another half hour after getting access through the property of a nearby business.
Two people were pulled from the water about an hour later and a third person was discovered about a half hour later. They were all taken to the hospital, but the Greeley Fire Department later said they had died.
