Two women died following a series of crashes on Interstate 84, in Idaho caused by a wrong-way driver.

The crashes were reported just before 4 p.m. on Sunday.

They took place near New Plymouth in Payette County.

A 79-year-old woman from Council was headed east in a Ford Explorer when the car crossed over the median into the westbound lanes.

Two oncoming cars, driven by a 38-year-old and a 35-year-old, swerved to miss the Ford and crashed with each other.

The 79-year-old continued in the westbound lanes, hitting a Mitsubishi Mirage head-on. The driver of the Mirage, a 25-year-old woman from Parma, was killed in the crash.

The 79-year-old was flown to a local hospital, where she later succumbed to her injuries.

All four drivers were using their seatbelts. 

Idaho State Police is investigating the crash.
