University of Colorado's Coach Prime announces death of quarterback Dominiq Ponder - CBS Colorado
Details from the CBS story:
Colorado State Patrol said Ponder was involved in a fatal crash early Sunday morning. They reported that Ponder was driving a 2023 Tesla Model 3 westbound on Baseline Road when he lost control of the vehicle on a right-hand curve around 3 a.m. The Tesla then crossed the eastbound lane and crashed through a guardrail before striking an electrical line pole. Authorities said the vehicle rolled down the embankment and landed on its wheels, then caught fire.
Ponder was announced dead at the scene.
CSP said the crash is under investigation, but they believe speed may have been a factor. Ponder was the sole occupant of the vehicle, and no other vehicles were involved in the crash.
