One person is dead following a single-vehicle crash in Colorado Springs Friday, according to the Colorado Springs Police Department.

Police said just after midnight officers received reports of a crash near the 2500 block of East Pikes Peak Avenue. 

Police discovered that the vehicle had been traveling westbound on the left side of the road when it apparently lost control and struck a nearby retaining wall, officials said. 

Although medical personnel on the scene attempted life-saving measures on the driver, the person was pronounced dead on the scene, according to police. 

The driver’s identity and cause of the crash have not been released at this time, with the crash remaining under investigation. 

This is the tenth traffic fatality in Colorado Springs this year, according to the CSPD.
