Vehicle collision claims Naples man

August 21, 2013
A three-vehicle collision on Highway 95 at Mountain Meadows Road Tuesday evening stopped traffic through Boundary County for several hours and claimed the life of a Naples man married just a month ago.

According to the Idaho State Police, Josh W. Wilkerson, 25, succumbed to his injuries at the scene of the accident.

The accident occurred at 5:16 p.m., when Wilkerson, driving a 2001 Oldsmobile Alero south, stopped to turn east on Mountain Meadow Road. He was rear-ended by a 2004 Subaru driven by Keith Anderson, 22, Coeur d'Alene, pushing Wilkerson's vehicle into the northbound lane of the highway, where it was hit again by a 2013 Dodge Ram pickup driven by Derek Carpenter, 32, Moyie Springs.

Two passengers in Carpenter's vehicle were taken by ambulance to Boundary Community Hospital with non life threatening injuries.
