LAKEWOOD, Colo. — The driver of an SUV that slammed into a Mesa County School bus carrying members of a Grand Junction wrestling team was traveling over 90 miles per hour, or 52 mph over the posted speed limit, 2 seconds before the impact, according to an arrest affidavit from the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.
The driver of the SUV, 22-year-old Andrew Logan Miller, from Denver, was hospitalized with injuries as a result of the December 6 crash and later arrested on a list of charges.
There were 12 people, including 10 students and 2 adult coaches on the bus, when the crash happened at around 7:30 p.m. near Kipling Street and W. 6th Avenue. The Central Valley high school wrestling team was in the Denver metro area for a tournament and was “delayed in returning to Grand Junction due to snow on the mountain passes,” according to Lakewood PD.
