ISLAND PARK, Idaho (AP) A pickup truck and tour van collision near Yellowstone National Park has killed seven people, Idaho State Police say.

The crash happened just before 7:15 p.m. Thursday on a highway near Henry’s Lake State Park in eastern Idaho. The state park is roughly 16 miles (26 kilometers) west of Yellowstone National Park.
