COOK COUNTY, IL – Authorities were called to a collision Thursday evening that closed sections of southbound Highway 53 near Palatine, according to TTWN Chicago.

The accident was initially reported at Palatine Road, but by 8:10 p.m., both the entrance ramp and the main lanes from Rand Road were shut down.

It was not immediately clear what led up to the wreck, but at around the time of early reports, all southbound lanes between Rand Road and Palatine Road were shut down, and a traffic backup had formed down to Dundee Road.

By 8:35 p.m., 25 minutes after the initial report, delays had reached Lake-Cook Road.


Local agencies have not confirmed any injuries or hospital transports from the scene.
