On March 30, 2010 at approximately 6:00 p.m., Idaho State Police investigated a four vehicle crash in Caldwell. Nick J. Nettleton, 23, of Nampa was driving a white 1999 Chevrolet pickup east on Caldwell Blvd near 45th St. Nettleton crossed through the center turn lane and into oncoming westbound traffic.

Sherran A. Davis, 66, of Caldwell was driving a blue 2009 Toyota Corolla west on Caldwell Blvd. Juan E. Capetillo, 34, of Nampa was driving a black 1999 Chevrolet Silverado west on Caldwell Blvd. Davis and Capetillo both attempted to avoid Nettleton, resulting in a collision between their two vehicles.

Tracy J. Schroeder, 34, of Caldwell was driving west on Caldwell Blvd. in a silver 2001 Kia Sportage. In Schroeder's vehicle were passengers Todd L. DeHaven, 44, of Caldwell, and a six year old female child. Schroeder swerved to her right to avoid a collision, but her vehicle was struck in the driver's side by Nettleton's vehicle.

Nettleton's vehicle went over the sidewalk, across the grass, and through the front wall of a house, coming to rest in the living room, striking Faye L. Dunlap, 76, of Caldwell.

All vehicle occupants were wearing seatbelts. Tracy J. Schroeder, her 6 year of age passenger, and Faye L. Dunlap were transported by ground ambulance to St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise.

Alcohol is not a factor.

The investigation is continuing.
