On August 20, 2013, at approximately 8:47 p.m., Idaho State Police investigated a multiple vehicle injury crash at the intersection of N 2600 E and US Highway 30, near Twin Falls.

David Anderson, 56, of Filer, ID, was driving westbound on US Highway 30 in a 1986 Ford Bronco. Kelsey Kayan, 21, of Boise, ID, was driving southbound on N 2600 E in a Silver 2001 Honda CRV. Kayan entered the intersection to continue southbound on N 2600 E and was struck by Anderson. The impact caused Kayan's vehicle to travel westbound for approximately 500 feet, until it collided with a dumpster, which then struck a parked 1994 Freightliner semi truck. Anderson's vehicle went off of the roadway and crashed into a parked vehicle at a nearby residence. Both parked vehicles were unoccupied. US Highway 30 was closed for approximately four hours during the investigation.

Kayan was transported by ground ambulance to St. Luke's Magic Valley Medical Center. Anderson was not injured. Both drivers were wearing their seatbelts. The crash remains under investigation.
