Morning traffic delayed due to fatal accident on Dan Ryan Expressway

On Friday morning, there was a tragic incident on the inbound Dan Ryan Expressway, resulting in a closure of all local lanes. At around 5:48 a.m., a collision occurred between two vehicles in the northbound lanes of Interstate 94 near Marquette Road, as reported by Illinois State Police. Tragically, one individual from one of the cars was thrown from the vehicle and passed away at the scene. Another individual sustained injuries and was transported to a nearby hospital, while a third occupant reportedly fled the area. This led to significant traffic congestion from 95th Street to the accident site. Emergency personnel were present, redirecting traffic into the express lanes. Authorities stated that the cause of the crash was not immediately evident, and drivers were advised to find alternative routes as the investigation unfolds. Updates will be provided as this story progresses.
