BOISE, Idaho — A Boise man and a dog are dead following a multi-vehicle crash on Americana Boulevard at the entrance to Ann Morrison Park on Tuesday.

The Ada County Coroner's Office has identified the man as 66-year-old Mitchell Edwards.

Police say that a pickup truck heading northbound on Americana struck a car turning left into the park from southbound Americana. The two vehicles then collided with two other vehicles that were stopped at the light.

Edwards and the dog who died were in the vehicle that was first hit by the truck. No other serious injuries were reported, according to police.

Americana was closed between Crescent Rim and Shoreline while police investigated and cleared the scene.

A Boise Police Department investigation is ongoing, and Idaho News 6 will continue to update this story as more information becomes available.
