On September 14, 2014, at approximately 10:30 p.m., the Idaho State Police investigated a four-vehicle injury crash on Interstate 84 at milepost 36, near Nampa. Edel Valdez, age 18 of Caldwell, was traveling westbound in a 2000 Volkswagen Jetta and slowed for traffic. Martin Macias, age 52 of Meridian, was driving west in a 2006 Dodge Dakota, when he veered left to avoid the slowing Jetta and struck the vehicle from behind. Robin Hagaman, age 53 of Nampa, was traveling behind Macias' vehicle in a 2003 Toyota Matrix and was able to avoid a collision with Valdez and Macias' vehicles. Anne Uhl, age 66 of Boise, was traveling in a 1997 Oldsmobile 88 behind Hagaman's vehicle and was unable to stop, striking Hagaman from behind. Hagaman was transported by ground ambulance to St. Alphonsus Health Plaza in Nampa.
