Gena Zepeda was in her SUV behind a moving truck, which were both waiting to turn onto Hayden Lake Road, when a pickup truck suddenly swerved in their lane.

The pickup struck Zepeda, whose SUV then flipped and struck the moving truck.

The other two drivers were not hurt. The state patrol is still investigating, and says alcohol was not a factor in the crash.
