2 men cited in U.S. Highway 160 crash

Traffic slowed for about an hour

A three-vehicle crash Thursday evening just east of Mancos slowed traffic for about an hour on U.S. Highway 160.

Colorado State Patrol Trooper Jeff Chmielewski said he did not have details about the crash, which occurred around 6:50 p.m. and resulted in minor injuries to all three men driving the vehicles.

Chmielewski was not sure if any of the men were transported to hospitals.

Randy Jorgensen, 19, of Cortez, the driver of a white 1995 Chevrolet pickup, was cited for careless driving. Miguel Martinez, 38, of Mancos, the driver of a white 2007 GMC Yukon, was cited for failing to present valid insurance. The third driver, Carlos Rizek, 67, of Norman, Oklahoma, was not cited in the crash.
