BOULDER, Colo. – A 90-year-old woman hospitalized Wednesday after her SUV collided with an RTD bus in South Boulder.

The accident happened at about 11:16 p.m. when, according to Boulder Police spokeswoman Kim Kobel, the woman was driving her Ford Bronco eastbound on South Boulder Road and collided with the bus near Foothills Parkway.

She was being treated for “serious injuries” at a local hospital, Kobel said.
