INCIDENT INFORMATION: Idaho State Police Troopers attempted to stop a vehicle for reckless driving northbound on US95 near Elder Road. The vehicle failed to yield which initiated a pursuit. The vehicle continued northbound on US95 to just south of the Spokane River where the suspects turned off on a county road and traveled west on county roads (tossing out beer cans along the way) into Washington State on Appleway Road and into Liberty Lake. The suspects then entered onto I90 and headed east towards Idaho. ISP Troopers deployed the spike system near the stateline, flattening the driver side tires of the suspect vehicle. The suspect tried to force his way through heavy traffic on the bridge crossing into Idaho sideswiping two vehicles. The suspect then lost control of his vehicle and spun out and came to rest off the right shoulder of the roadway at which time all 4 people exited the vehicle and fled on foot. Kootenai County Patrol Dog was deployed, biting one of the suspects. Three suspects were taken into custody. The driver fled on foot south towards Spokane River. Officers and dogs searched the area for about one hour before calling off the manhunt. The driver was later spotted in the Pleasant View area where he was arrested without incident. All subjects have been charged with numerous felony and misdemeanor charges.

Contact: Trooper Pattis

On Monday, February 01, 2010 at approximately 5:34 A.M, Idaho State Police and Elmore County emergency crews investigated a two-vehicle crash on Interstate 84 at mile post 73.2. David P. Bowers, 53 of Boise, was headed west bound in a 2002 Ford F350 pickup. It appears that Bowers was driving too fast for the slick road conditions when he lost control, went into the median, rolled one full time before coming to rest in the left lane on the east bound side. His truck was then struck by a semi with a box trailer and pushed back into the median. Bowers was transported by ambulance to St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise with serious injuries. His passenger, Jonathan E. Hanson, 43 of Emmett, was also transported to the same hospital with minor injuries. The semi driver, Timothy D. Martin, 41 of Boise, received no injuries. All occupants were wearing seatbelts, and alcohol was not a factor. Weather and speed were contributing factors in this crash. The roads were reported as slick with very low visibility in the area.
This crash is under investigation by Trooper Pattis with assistance from members of the Idaho State Police Commercial Vehicle Safety and the Idaho State Police Collision Reconstruction Unit.
