The Colorado State Patrol said Ray Stout, 79, triggered a five-car crash on Highway 50 when his 1983 Toyota Dolphin RV strayed across the center line, then swerved back, side-swiping an eastbound Lincoln Town Car, which then side-swiped a Toyota Camry. Both of those vehicles went off the road; their occupants weren't injured.
The RV then collided head-on with an eastbound Nissan Altima driven by Miguel Solis, 68, of El Paso, Texas. Both Stout and Solis died at the scene.
