On Tuesday, December 16th, at approximately 5:41 A.M., the Idaho State Police investigated a three-vehicle injury crash at the bottom of the eastbound Interstate 84 off ramp at Gowen Road, in Boise, ID.

Nohman Javed, 24, of West Valley, UT, was driving west on Gowen Road in a 2012 Volvo commercial vehicle, pulling a Great Dane trailer. Alfredo M.

All occupants were wearing seatbelts. Hernandez was transported by ground ambulance to St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise, ID.
