A dashcam video shows a grey SUV traveling the wrong way on I-90 just moments before a fatal three-vehicle collision.

The crash killed 24-year-old Jeremy Scherer from Spokane Valley.

Idaho State Police are now searching for more witnesses to Friday's accident that led to the death of another driver.

After medical treatment, 57-year-old Christine Cann was arrested for vehicular manslaughter after the incident.

Several witnesses stopped and gave statements to investigating troopers after the collision, but the video offered by another witness shows a number of other drivers who may have seen what happened. Police are asking for those drivers to come forward and give statements.

"A young man sadly did not survive this crash. The video shows there may be more people who can help us put together what happened. We hope when those folks realize what they witnessed, they'll contact investigating troopers," said Captain John Kempf of the Idaho State Police District 1 in Coeur d'Alene.

The incident happened at about 12:37 p.m. on Friday (Sept. 11) west of Coeur d'Alene. Contact ISP's Coeur d'Alene office via ISP dispatch at 208-209-8730.
