Tragic Highway Crash Claims Father and Three Children in Colorado
FRANKTOWN, Colo. — A stolen carjacked vehicle veered out of control and slammed head-on into a family sedan on a rural Colorado highway, killing a father and three young passengers in what authorities described as a preventable tragedy tied to a suspect's violent criminal past.

The collision unfolded Monday afternoon, Nov. 24, 2025, along State Highway 83 near Russellville Road south of Franktown in Douglas County, about 30 miles south of Denver. Around 3:45 p.m., a 31-year-old Denver man with a history of assaults and parole violations carjacked a black Toyota Matrix at a regional transit parking garage in Aurora. The victim, a woman preparing to enter her vehicle, refused the man's request for a ride. He grabbed her arm, yanked her out and sped away southward on Highway 83.
Less than an hour later, the suspect lost control on a curve, veered onto the right shoulder, overcorrected sharply and rolled into the northbound lane. The Toyota smashed into a northbound Ford Fusion driven by 35-year-old Alvin Corado of Colorado Springs, an Army reservist and range control employee at Fort Carson. Corado was transporting five children — his two young ones, his teenage daughter and his girlfriend's two sons — to visit the girlfriend, who had undergone spinal fusion surgery that morning at a Denver-area hospital.
Corado and three passengers died at the scene: his 8-year-old son Toretto, a creative boy who loved building paper inventions and had just entered a gifted program; his 11-year-old daughter Makenlee, a rising volleyball star who had overcome severe epilepsy; and 12-year-old Jase Green, one of his girlfriend's sons and brother to survivor Jordan. The suspect, identified as Walter Huling by investigators, was ejected from the Toyota and pronounced dead on arrival. He had served a six-year prison term for a 2019 assault in downtown Denver where he knocked a man unconscious and attacked the man's wife and arresting officer. Huling had been released on parole despite prior violations and racked up at least 15 arrests since 2013 for crimes including burglary, DUI and bribery.
Two teenagers in the Fusion survived with serious injuries. Mia Corado, 13, Alvin's daughter, suffered a fractured pelvis, lacerated liver and esophageal tear; she underwent surgery at Children's Hospital Colorado in Aurora and is stable, responsive and expected to recover. Jordan Green, 14, Jase's brother, sustained broken femurs and facial fractures, requiring airlift to the hospital where he faces a long rehabilitation compounded by grief.
Eyewitnesses to the carjacking described the suspect's aggression, with the victim telling police he "grabbed her door and asked for a ride" before the violent ejection. Family members learned of the crash through the Life360 app, which alerted to an abrupt speed drop from 57 mph to zero. "From our family's point of view, Alvin did everything he could to avoid the accident," said Jose Rodriguez, uncle to the Corado children. "He veered the vehicle as soon as he could to try to make the impact on him and not the children." Rodriguez called Toretto and Makenlee "firecrackers" who "lit up the room," urging others to "hug your kids a little tighter tonight — you don't know how life can change in an instant."
Anthony Martin, uncle to the Green boys, echoed the sentiment: "It's just a tragic situation all around for all the families, including the guy that made a horrible decision to steal that vehicle and change the lives of everyone involved. Our family is forever changed." No charges were filed against Huling, who perished in the wreck, but Douglas County District Attorney George Brauchler decried the state's parole system. "This guy's criminal history ... seems like we are failing the community," Brauchler said. "I've got questions for the state of Colorado: What are we doing? Who are you putting out here on the streets?"
Community support poured in swiftly, with two GoFundMe campaigns raising over $80,000 in two days to cover medical bills, survivor care and transporting the deceased to Sioux Falls, South Dakota, for funerals. "The medical bills are not going to cover themselves," Rodriguez said, "and we have to transfer our two poor babies back to where their hometown is ... bury them with all the honors and love that they deserve." Local leaders called for reviews of repeat offender releases, while residents along the highway laid flowers at a makeshift memorial, reflecting on the fragility of routine drives.
