HAMMOND, Ind. (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- One person was killed Sunday in a three-vehicle expressway crash in northwest Indiana.
The crash involving a semi and two passenger vehicles happened at about 2:50 a.m. on I-80/94 at the two-mile marker, Indiana state police said.
A preliminary investigation found a 2013 Toyota Highlander was traveling in the far left lane “at a high rate of speed” and rear-ended a Lincoln, causing it to catch fire. The Toyota continued and struck a 2018 Utility semi-trailer being pulled by a 2019 International tractor.
Two other expressway crashes happened at the .7 and .1 mile-markers, state police said. No one was seriously injured in either collisions.
