Idaho State troopers are still working to reopen Westbound I-84 east of Mountain Home.
Overnight, a crash between a semi and a pickup pulling a trailer closed the road, as firefighters worked to put out the fire. No one was hurt in the crash, but traffic is being detoured at milepost 99, through Mountain Home, and back onto the freeway at milepost 90.
We’ll let you know when the highway is reopened.

Both vehicles caught on fire, but nobody was injured in the crash.
The semi was a Fed-Ex truck, and all the packages were destroyed in the fire which took several hours to put out.
