Early this morning, a crash on Federal Boulevard resulted in two injuries and one fatality.

The latter is a woman — and the Denver Police Department believes the incident that took her life constitutes a crime.

A seventeen-year-old male has been arrested on suspicion of vehicular homicide, among other charges.

And the DPD maintains that excessive speed was a factor in the tragedy that ensued.

According to the department, the crash took place around 1:30 a.m. today, July 27, near the intersection of 23rd and Federal.

Here's the first DPD tweet about what happened....

....followed by this message containing additional details....

...and a third post mentioning speed:

Thus far, there's been no mention that a street race was underway when the accident occurred.

However, Federal Boulevard is a frequent setting for such races, and some of them have had heartbreaking results.

Last November, for instance, Regis University student Rachel Neiman was killed in a fatal street race further north on Federal, near the 54th Avenue intersection.

At this writing, today's accident has been cleared, as documented in this tweet from Fox31/CW 2's Greg Nieto:

Thus far, the names of those associated with the crash have yet to be shared — and there's no telling when or if we'll learn them.

Presumably, the identity of the person who died in the crash will be made public by the Denver coroner's office after next-of-kin notification.

But the seventeen-year-old driver's name will only be released if prosecutors decide to charge him as an adult.

In the meantime, our condolences to the friends, family and loved ones of the woman who died earlier this morning on Federal Boulevard.
