Male Driver Pronounced Dead after Red- Light Collision near Indian School Road

ALBUQUERQUE, NM (May 3, 2024) – Friday morning, one man was fatally injured in a three-vehicle red-light crash on Tramway Boulevard.

Just before 9:50 a.m., police officers responded to the scene near Indian School Road on April 19th.

Investigators say the driver of a red Volvo was heading south on Tramway at a high rate of speed. The Volvo eventually entered the intersection through a red light at the intersection.

As a result, the Volvo struck a Ford that was waiting to turn onto Indian School Road. The impact pushed both vehicles into the side of a nearby box-truck.
