Cristina Restrepo’s tragic accident occurred after 5 o’clock, when a Ford box truck and another car collided, trapping Restrepo’s Nissan between them.

According to troopers, a previous collision caused a stop on Highway 169 southbound just north of Highway 55. Restrepo was forced into the third car after the box truck rear-ended the Nissan as it slowed down for traffic.

The box truck strikes the automobile without seeming to slow down in the video captured by the traffic camera. The cause of the crash has not been disclosed by the troopers.

The box truck driver had not been charged with a crime as of Tuesday, and they had not been taken to the Hennepin County Jail as a result of the event. Alcohol was not a contributing factor in the crash, according to the Minnesota State Patrol’s incident report.
