DOUGLAS COUNTY, Colo. — A criminally negligent homicide charge against a driver who hit and killed a Colorado State Trooper on Interstate 25 has been dismissed by the court.
Douglas District Court Judge Shay Whitaker on Friday dismissed the felony charge against Noe Gamez-Ruiz in connection to the death of Trooper Cody Donahue.
District Attorney George Brauchler, whose office is prosecuting the case, had not yet seen the order on Friday evening, according to his spokeswoman, Vikki Migoya. She said he has “no immediate comment at this time.”
