Two killed in Highway 95 Friday crash

COLBURN — Two people were killed in a head-on collision with a dump truck on U.S. Highway 95 on Friday.

Idaho State Police said Yun Zhou was driving southbound in a Ford Focus when she attempted to pass a tractor-trailer, which was also southbound. Jennifer R. Bowlby was northbound and swerved the Chrysler Town & Country minivan she was driving to avoid a collision.

Zhou continued driving southbound in the northbound lane and crashed head-on into a Kenworth dump truck driven by Harley L. Lippert. The dump truck then slid into Bowlby’s minivan, state police said.

The vehicles came to rest on the east shoulder of the highway.

“This was really bad,” said Bonner EMS spokesman Bob Abbott.
