...preliminary results show the truck driver -- Christopher G. Loven, 45, of Boulder County -- was at fault because he failed to yield the right of way, Colorado State Patrol Cpl. Eric Wynn said Monday evening.

A decision has not yet been made whether to charge Loven in connection with the death of Eugene Philip Howrey, 73, of Boulder, Wynn said.

The Camera reported in 2009 that Loven was ticketed on suspicion of reckless endangerment after a cyclist said Loven used his truck to push him into oncoming traffic near Lee Hill Drive and Olde Stage Road. A witness confirmed the cyclist's account.

Wynn said investigators will use evidence only from Friday's crash in making a determination of fault. "These are two separate incidents," Wynn said Monday. "You can't hold someone accountable in one case for something that happened in another case."
