A Pocatello woman was killed and two juvenile passengers injured in a one car crash on southbound Interstate 15 near Malad.

The car overcorrected again and rolled throiugh the median before coming to rest on its side in the southbound lanes.

Pratt was ejected from the vehicle and died at the scene. The two juveniles were taken by ground ambulance to the Oneida County Hospital. None of them were wearing seatbelts.

The southbound lanes of the interstate were blocked for about two and a half hours.
