One person was killed and another was injured in a fiery crash involving a semi and another vehicle early Tuesday on the Edens Expressway in north suburban Skokie.
The two-vehicle crash happened around 3:50 a.m. in the southbound lanes just north of Touhy Avenue and for unknown reasons the semi rolled over and caught fire, Illinois state police said.
One unidentified person was pronounced dead after sustaining life-threatening injuries, state police said. Another was taken to an area hospital with unspecified injuries.
All southbound lanes were shut down minutes after the crash and are expected to remain closed until at least 8 a.m., state police said.
No further information was immediately available.
