Trucker’s mysteriously shattered window starts police investigation

Police are searching for information regarding a trucker’s window that was shattered while on a highway in Idaho Tuesday.

The incident happened on September 18th at around 5:30 p.m. near the Cole Road exit on Interstate 84 in Boise, Idaho.

According to ABC 6 News, the unnamed trucker was driving a Peterbilt semi truck when his passenger side window suddenly shattered. Luckily, the driver was able to pull over safely and was unhurt by the broken glass but police are searching for anyone with information on this sort of incident.

“It is not possible to determine at this time the cause of the broken window, but we are asking the public for any additional information to determine whether this is an isolated incident or perhaps part of a pattern,” said Idaho State Police spokesman Tim Marsano.

Police are most interested in similar events that occurred at the same location between September 11th and September 18th.

Anyone with information regarding the incident is urged to contact Idaho State Police Dispatch at (208) 846-7500.
