I-84 CRASH STILL BACKED UP

Hours after the crash on I-84 traffic is still backed up. DO NOT hit I-84 in the 5 Mile area both East and West because authorities are continuing to investigate which is what keeps most lanes shut down.

Here’s what happened according to KTVB…

“Interstate 84 was closed in both directions in west Boise this morning after a semi-truck crashed into the median and burst into flames.

Idaho State Police say the crash happened at 7:36 a.m. and appears to involve vehicles that were traveling in both directions.

Troopers on scene are reporting that at least one person appears to have suffered potentially life-threatening injuries. No word yet on how many people were hurt in the crash. 

Idaho State Police, Boise Police, Ada County Sheriff's deputies, fire and EMS are all responded to the crash near Five Mile Road (milepost 48).”
