LINCOLN COUNTY, Idaho -- A motorcyclist was killed after a collision with a semi truck Saturday afternoon.

It happened around 3:51 p.m. on U.S. 26, just east of Richfield in Lincoln County.

Jan Boline, 43, of Idaho Falls, was traveling westbound on a 2003 Harley Davidson motorcycle when she lost control of the motorcycle, crossed into the opposite lane of travel and collided with a semi. 

Goran Mandura, 46, of Twin Falls, who was traveling eastbound in a 2007 Freightliner, tried to avoid the motorcycle but was unable to. 

Boline was not wearing a helmet and was pronounced dead on impact. 

It is unknown if any other factors contributed to the crash. Next of kin have been notified.
