Rexburg man killed after fiery crash on US-20

Idaho State Police have confirmed Wednesday’s crash resulted in the death of a Rexburg man.

The crash occurred at 12:45 p.m. on eastbound U.S. Highway 20 at milepost 308 in Idaho Falls, according to a news release from Idaho State Police.

The 21-year-old man from Rexburg was driving westbound on US-20 in a 2008 Ford Mustang. A 43-year-old man from Moore was driving eastbound on US20 in a 2015 Freightliner pulling a propane trailer.

The Ford Mustang drove across the median and into the eastbound lanes colliding with the Freightliner. Both vehicles became engulfed in flames and were put out by the Idaho Falls Fire Department.

The driver of the Ford Mustang succumbed to his injuries at scene. His identity has not been released.

The driver of the Freightliner was transported by ground ambulance to a local hospital.

Traffic on eastbound US20 has been blocked for approximately 4 hours and is still blocked to allow emergency responders to assist those involved and clear the scene. Idaho State Police was assisted by the Idaho Falls Police Department, Bonneville County Sherif’s Office, Idaho Falls Fire Department and the Idaho Transportation Department.

UPDATE

The following is a news release from the Idaho Transportation Department.

U.S. Highway 20 in Idaho Falls has been closed to all traffic at Exit 308 due to a crash earlier today that involved a propane truck that caught on fire. Emergency crews are on scene and have contained the fire. There is no threat to any businesses or surrounding neighborhoods.

The bridge has been shut down to all traffic to allow crews to inspect the structure for damage. No detour has been put in place. Travelers are asked to avoid the area and use alternative routes.

“This is a developing situation,” Operations Engineer Jeremie Pettingill said. “Depending how the inspection of the bridge goes, the highway could reopen as early as tomorrow.”

Drivers should find alternative routes and check 511.idaho.gov for updates. Another update will be sent once the inspection has been completed
