BEACH PARK, IL – A 5-year-old boy lost his life in a wrong-way collision on Green Bay Rd near Hart St on Tuesday, according to WGN 9.

A 24-year-old man was driving a Chevrolet Malibu south on Green Bay Rd. He was allegedly weaving in and out of the north and southbound lanes to pass southbound traffic.

The 24-year-old man collided head-on with a GMC Sierra operated by a 57-year-old man in the northbound lanes around 5 p.m.

Emergency crews extricated the 24-year-old man from his vehicle. First responders transported both drivers and a 2-year-old boy, who was seated on the 24-year-old driver’s lap, to area hospitals in critical condition.

The 24-year-old man told deputies nobody else was in the vehicle before he was taken to the hospital. However, first responders found a 5-year-old boy in the wreckage.

First responders transported the 5-year-old boy to an area hospital, where he died.

An autopsy of the 5-year-old boy revealed he died from blunt force injuries.

The Lake County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the incident.
