Police in Deerfield, other news, are investigating a fatal crash.
Yeah, Saquon is live from the scene
with those details for us here on this Monday.
Say good morning.
Hey, good morning guys. You can see, I mean, the crash site has pretty
much cleared out and that only happened in the last 30 minutes or so.
But you can see, you know, everything is back to normal here
while Waukegan Road has been opened back up for traffic once again.
So things are looking okay as this investigation now plays out.
I do want to show you some video here that we saw.
We saw that tow truck actually taking that car away
and you can see that damage. I mean, there's only a very short,
you know, nine second video of the damage here. But I mean that
The car was in.
Basically just pushed in from the front.
We know that this happened just after midnight.
We know two vehicles were involved.
That's what we're hearing from Deerfield Police.
One of them was a box truck and then one of them
was just a regular kind of like a crossover SUV car.
We did learn that one person died from their injuries.
But police did not say how many people in total were involved
or whether anyone else was hurt.
We are also working to learn whether
charges will be filed in this case.
But we do know that an investigation is underway.
At this point, it is unclear.
the identity of that person who died from their injuries,
but we do expect that information to come out at some point today,
potentially sometime later this week
as the Lake County Coroner's Office is now investigating.
Guys, back to you.
