A Boise man died roughly two weeks after he was involved in a two-vehicle crash near the Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center, according to the Ada County Coroner’s Office.
Alva Haynes died just before 3 p.m. Saturday at Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise from “complications” of the blunt force injuries he sustained during a crash, the Coroner’s Office said in a news release. He was 79.
The crash occurred around 9:35 p.m. June 9 near the 6000 block of West Emerald Street, which is behind the hospital. Haynes was the only one in his vehicle and traveling west on Emerald Street, while the other vehicle was driving eastbound when they collided on the Interstate 184 overpass, Boise police spokesperson Haley Williams told the Statesman in an email. Both drivers spoke to police before being taken to the hospital, she said.
Boise police are investigating the crash, according to the news release. The department hasn’t issued any citations or made any arrests as of Tuesday, Williams said.
