A local prosecutor announced charges Monday against two Colorado police
officers over a September incident in which a train struck a patrol car
with a woman handcuffed inside.

Officer Jordan Steinke, of the Fort Lupton Police Department, faces two
felony charges and officer Pablo Vazquez, of the Platteville Police
Department, faces multiple misdemeanor charges after the incident left a
20-year-old woman with serious injuries, the Weld County District
Attorney’s Office announced.

On Sept. 16, Vazquez pulled over 20-year-old Yareni Rios-Gonzalez near
Platteville, Colorado, 40 miles north of Denver, in connection with a road
rage incident involving a firearm reported earlier in the day.

Rios-Gonzalez stopped her vehicle just past a set of train tracks, and
Vazquez parked his patrol car behind her on the tracks, according to the
Colorado Bureau of Investigation.

Two police officers from Fort Lupton, including Steinke, arrived to assist
in a search of Rios-Gonzalez's vehicle. Steinke handcuffed Rios-Gonzalez
and placed her inside Vazquez's patrol car parked on the tracks.

Then a train came.

Police-worn body cameras captured the harrowing moment. The train can be
heard moving closer as police searched Rios-Gonzalez's vehicle. The
officers notice just before it slams into the cruiser. Rios-Gonzalez
sustained serious injuries, but survived, according to CBI.

CBI and several agencies investigated the collision.

The Weld County District Attorney’s Office charged Steinke with felony
counts of attempted manslaughter and second degree assault, on top of a
misdemeanor reckless endangerment charge.

Vazquez was charged with five counts of misdemeanor reckless endangerment,
one count of careless driving, one count of obstructing a passageway and
one count of parking where prohibited, the district attorney's office
announced.

The district attorney’s office also announced a felony menacing charge
against Rios-Gonzalez Monday. She had been accused of pointing a firearm
at someone when she was arrested, the district attorney's office said.

The officers and Rios-Gonzalez were issued summons, but not arrested, the
district attorney’s office said.

It was unclear Tuesday if either officer had obtained a lawyer.

Inquiries from USA TODAY to the Fort Lupton and Platteville police
departments about the job status of Steinke and Vazquez were not
immediately returned Tuesday
