Chicago, IL (August 6, 2024) – An early morning crash on I-90 caused a handful of victim injuries and massive delays for commuters on Tuesday, August 6.
According to officers with the Chicago Police Department, a two-vehicle crash involving a semi happened just before 5:00 a.m. on the inbound lanes of the Kennedy Expressway (Interstate 90) near Montrose. The crash also affected traffic into the Kennedy junction from the Edens Expressway. Authorities shut down the two right lanes as they cleared up the crash and EMTs responded.
News footage was taken over the scene around 6:00 a.m., which showed a blue semi being towed. All lanes eventually reopened around 6:30 a.m., but the crash left delays throughout the morning. Those with injuries were transported to local medical facilities for further care and examination. No additional information is available thus far, though citations may be pending and the local police continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash,
Our thoughts are extended to the injured victims and their loved ones. We hope for their full recovery at this time.
