CHICAGO, IL – At least one person died Wednesday night in a multi-vehicle crash along the interstate in northwest Chicago, reports WGN 9.

The accident occurred shortly after 7:15 p.m. on the northbound side of I-294, or the Tri-State Tollway, between I-190 and Foster Avenue. This is just east of Chicago O’Hare International Airport.

Police haven’t shared any details regarding the circumstances of the collision except to say that it involved an 18-wheeler and three passenger vehicles.

At least one person sustained fatal injuries. Authorities have not disclosed the name of the victim(s), and it’s unclear how many additional people may have been hospitalized.

Officials closed the northbound side of I-294 in the area of Balmoral Avenue for just over five hours while emergency crews worked at the scene.

A full investigation is underway.
