The 23-year-old man was walking across the westbound lanes of I-84 when he was struck by a westbound Nissan Altima just before 3 a.m. He died at the scene.
“The two left lanes of Interstate 84 were blocked for approximately 4 hours,” according to a news release from the Idaho State Police. “This incident remains under investigation by the Idaho State Police.”
The victim’s name has not been released.
