Another Caldwell Crash Takes Life Of 19-Year-Old

Yesterday morning, just after 5 a.m. the Idaho State Police were called into a fatal crash at the intersection of South 10th Avenue and Fillmore Street in Caldwell.  This is only days after a bad accident sent seven people to the hospital and killed two others.

KTVB reports that 19-year-old Richard Cook was riding an old motorcycle (1979 Honda) east on Fillmore and just like the other accident, he blazed straight through a stop sign hitting 27-year-old Daniel Lasiter in his 1996 Chevrolet Blazer.  Cook, unfortunately, was not wearing a helmet and died at St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Center.  Lasiter was taken to West Valley Medical Center.  We do not have information on his condition at this time.  We're all hoping and praying he'll come out of this o.k. and our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Richard Cook.
