May 21, 2020 - While Idaho's Stay Healthy Order, currently in Stage 2, continues to recommend folks minimize non-essential travel, the long holiday weekend may be a time some Idahoans choose to responsibly and safely reconnect with family and friends. Idaho State Police Troopers want those traveling through Central Idaho this weekend to know troopers will be out at full staff patrolling roadways from Lewiston to Riggins and beyond, working to keep motorists safe.

"We want this Memorial Day holiday to be a time we honor those who've sacrificed for our nation, and as appropriate, to enjoy friends and family." said Sgt. Chris Middleton with the ISP District 2 Patrol Division. "The current pandemic that's hit our nation has meant extra anxiety for some. No one wants the added stress or tragedy that comes from being involved in a crash caused by irresponsible driving. That's why we're asking motorists to take extra precaution this holiday weekend, and why our troopers will be out ready to assist and enforce traffic laws."

Idaho State troopers in Central Idaho will join partner law enforcement agencies in assisting motorists with unforeseen vehicle issues as well as watching out for driving offenses that often cause crashes, such as driving under the influence (DUI), distracted driving, and drowsy driving among others.

On behalf of everyone at the Idaho State Police, please have a safe and fun Memorial Day weekend. Drive safe, drive sober and please use good judgment.

Please direct questions to the ISP HQ Public Information Office

May, 18, 2020 - Troopers with the Idaho State Police arrested an Arizona man last weekend on multiple charges after a DUI investigation turned into threats of explosives.

What Happened: Saturday morning, May 16, at approximately 1:00 am, an Idaho State Police trooper observed a vehicle exceeding the posted speed limit traveling eastbound Interstate 84 in Nampa. The trooper stopped the vehicle. As the trooper spoke with the driver, the driver told the trooper explosives were present in his vehicle.

Concerned for the safety of the public, as well as for the driver and his passenger, troopers closed the eastbound lanes of the interstate and called for assistance. Officers from the Nampa Police Department specially trained in explosive detection responded. Caldwell officers also assisted ISP troopers in closing traffic lanes. The Nampa officers were eventually able to confirm explosives were, in fact not present in the suspect vehicle. During the investigation, eastbound traffic was closed for approximately three hours until troopers could assure the interstate was safe for travel.

Further investigation found the driver to be under the influence of alcohol and in possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. The suspect was booked into the Canyon County Jail on the following charges:

Arrested: Michael Jacob Rosequist, 28, Arizona

Charged: Use of Weapons of Mass Destruction (F) ISC 18-3322
Resisting & Obstructing an Officer (m)
Driving Under the Influence (m)
Possession of a Controlled Substance (m )
Possession of Paraphernalia with Intent to Use ( m)

May 15, 2020 - Idaho State Police are investigating a single vehicle crash that was reported at 6:00 this morning on Interstate 15 at mile marker 105, west of Shelley.

Two people, a man and woman, both from Arizona, were traveling northbound in a Ford Econoline box truck when the vehicle left the interstate on the left shoulder, went into the median and struck an embankment. No other vehicles were involved. The cause of the crash remains under investigation.

The female passenger in the truck, Ann Watson, 38, of Phoenix Arizona, was pronounced dead on scene. The male driver, Christopher Kracht, 40, also of Phoenix Arizona, was transported via air ambulance to Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center in Idaho Falls, where he also succumbed to his injuries. Kracht was wearing a seatbelt, Watson was not. Next of kin has been notified.

Information given to investigating troopers is the rented box truck being driven by Mr. Kracht was part of a nonprofit animal rescue network. 48 dogs of mixed breeds and sizes were being transported inside the truck. The dogs were being taken to Calgary, Alberta, Canada for adoption. All the dogs appeared to have been in kennels. Investigating troopers say, sadly, in addition to the two people killed in the crash, 14 of the dogs were also found deceased.

The Blackfoot Animal Shelter and Rescue is assisting with the safe handling of the dogs that have been located following the crash. At this time, 18 dogs have been found. Local veterinarians are also reportedly assisting the shelter with providing medical care to injured animals.

At this time, approximately 16 animals are unaccounted for. Despite searching the interstate area, troopers have been unable to locate any more of the missing dogs. Anyone who locates a stray animal in the area is urged to contact Bingham County animal control.

A representative of the animal rescue network tells troopers they are en route to Bingham County. They plan to pick up the remaining dogs and safely continue onto Canada where shelters are waiting to place the dogs in adopted homes.
