Icy Weather Cause For Deadly Crash In Idaho

Deadly crash on I-84 caused by snow and ice.  Please drive carefully today!

The Idaho State Police are saying the big factor in this morning's deadly crash on I-84 in Burley is the weather.

37-year-old Brandy Romero of Twin falls was headed westbound on I-84 around milepost 202 when she completely lost control of her vehicle because of icy roads.  Her SUV flew off the highway on the left side and flipped.  Romero was ejected, most likely because she was not wearing a seatbelt.

Romero was immediately flown to Minidoka Memorial Hospital in Rupert where she was eventually transported by an ambulance to Cassia Regional Hospital in Burley.  She unfortunately did not make it.  Our thoughts and our prayers are with her family.
