JOLIET, IL – A man died, and a 2-year-old sustained critical injuries Wednesday in a crash involving a semi-truck and a car in north-central Will County, reports Patch.

The incident occurred shortly before 10:30 p.m. at the intersection of South Chicago Street, or IL-53, and Dollar Tree Lane in Joliet, just 46 miles southwest of Chicago.

Police say that an Orland Park truck driver failed to heed right of way when turning left from Dollar Tree Lane onto South Chicago Street. The 18-wheeler entered the path of a southbound Dodge Dart, causing a collision.

The driver of the Dodge, identified as 40-year-old Adam Sigler of Wilmington, succumbed to his injuries at the scene.

Medics transported a small child from the Dodge to an area hospital with serious injuries.

No charges have been referenced so far.

A full investigation is underway.
