KIMBERLY, Idaho – Idaho State Police is investigating a two-vehicle injury crash that occurred on January 7, 2026, at 12:46 a.m. on Kimberly Road at N 3400 E in Twin Falls County.
A 2014 Freightliner Semi, driven by a 55-year-old male from Kuna, and hauling an empty tanker trailer was travelling Westbound on Kimberly Road. A Gray 2010 Ford F150 pickup, driven by an 18-year-old male from Jerome, was travelling Southbound on N 3400 E when it failed to stop at a stop sign and collided with the side of the semi-truck. The semi jackknifed from the impact and came to rest blocking the Eastbound lanes while the pickup came to rest blocking the Westbound lanes. The semi also struck and damaged a power pole, though the pole remained upright with power lines intact and Idaho Power is on scene.
The drivers of both vehicles and the passenger in the semi-truck, a 41-year-old male from Twin Falls, were transported via ground ambulance to a local hospital. All individuals involved were wearing seat belts.
Eastbound lanes are currently blocked on Kimberly Road as emergency services work to clear the scene, but Westbound lanes are now open after being blocked for approximately 5 hours.
