Investigators believe alcohol played a role in a crash that killed four people and injured another in northeastern Colorado.

The Greeley Tribune reports (http://bit.ly/1zlVj84 ) 44-year-old Rigoberto Macias-Marquez, of LaSalle, was headed south on U.S. Highway 85 when he lost control of his pickup truck Sunday night and crashed into a minivan carrying a family of four.

Macias-Marquez died at the scene. Also killed were 37-year-old Gilbert Martinez, of LaSalle, and his sons, 6-year-old Ethan and 1-year-old Bryson. Investigators say 32-year-old Mistelle Martinez, who also was in the minivan, suffered minor injuries.

Colorado State Patrol Trooper Nate Reid says that just before the crash, Macias-Marquez was driving on a raised concrete median until the left front tire ruptured, causing him to lose control. Investigators believe he'd been drinking before the crash.
