One injured in I-90 rollover crash near Des Plaines

A woman was injured Sunday in a single-vehicle rollover crash on the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway near Des Plaines, police said.

When officials arrived at the scene of the crash, which occurred at 4:12 p.m. near Wolf Road, a Honda CRV was off the road and in the construction area along the tollway, said Illinois State Police Master Sgt. Chadd Brody.

The car was on its side, he said, and fire officials had to extricate the driver because of the car's position.

The woman was taken to Advocate Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge for nonlife threatening injuries - possibly a broken leg, Brody said.

Though the crash initially caused some closures, all traffic lanes were open Sunday evening, police said.

Illinois State Police are investigating the cause of the crash, Brody said.
