Early Thursday morning law enforcement agencies from several jurisdictions, including Missoula, engaged in a high speed chase that began in Gallatin County, closed I-90 in both directions for several hours, and finally ended in Powell County.
The dog ran off after the crash, but Missoula County Sheriff's Office deputies met the good samaritan who found the dog about a mile away from the accident.
Missoula Police Officers learned that the body of an adult female, 46 years-of-age, had been located in an access tunnel under I-90 and adjacent to the 1100 block of E. Broadway.
One person is dead and several more were injured after an accident in interstate 90 east of Missoula yesterday afternoon. Montana Highway Patrol trooper Andrew Novak related details of the fatal crash.
