LAKE ZURICH, IL – A vehicle struck and fatally injured a pedestrian over the weekend in southwestern Lake County, reports Patch.

Shortly after 12:30 a.m. on Saturday, emergency crews were called to an auto-pedestrian crash at the intersection of Route 12 and Deerpath Road in Lake Zurich, which is about 44 miles northwest of Chicago.

Police say that an eastbound 2018 Lexus sports utility vehicle hit 59-year-old Casimir Ries in the crosswalk of the intersection. Ries succumbed to his injuries at the scene.

The driver of the Lexus remained at the scene. His condition at the time of the accident hasn’t yet been determined.

Motorists likely encountered delays in the area of Route 12 and Deerpath while teams gathered evidence and worked to clear the scene.

A full investigation is underway.

No amount of monetary compensation can ease the pain of losing a loved one in a car accident. Many family members, however, find comfort in fighting to hold the at-fault driver accountable for their actions. If you’re grieving a family member claimed by an auto-pedestrian accident in Lake County, the Chicago personal injury lawyers at TorHoeman can help you pursue justice.
