A tragic accident in Morgan County has left a community in shock and mourning after a young family was killed in a collision between an off-road vehicle and a pickup truck. The family, consisting of 22-year-old parents, Brandon Adkins and Destiny Rios, along with their two young sons, Benjamin and Isaiah, were all involved in the crash that took place on Wednesday afternoon.
According to reports from the Morgan County Coroner's Office, the accident occurred at the intersection of County Road C and County Road 31, approximately 20 miles south of Brush. Adkins and Rios were riding in a Polaris RZR and are believed to have run a stop sign before crashing into the pickup truck. Tragically, all four family members lost their lives in the collision.
The driver of the pickup truck sustained serious injuries and is currently being treated by medical professionals. The Colorado State Patrol is currently investigating the incident and is looking into the possibility of alcohol or drug use as a factor in the crash.

The page, organized by James Medina, also identified Rios as Destiny Mena. In a heartbreaking statement, Medina shared that the family is struggling to come to terms with the sudden and tragic loss of their loved ones and are seeking support to cover the funeral expenses.
This is a developing story and more information may become available as the investigation continues. For now, the community is coming together to support the family in their time of need. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those affected by this devastating accident.
