Man dies in Schaumburg crash
An 87-year-old Park Ridge man was killed Saturday in a two-vehicle crash in Schaumburg.
John Moore of South Prospect Avenue was pronounced dead at Alexian Brothers Medical Center in Elk Grove Village, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
The collision occurred at 8:29 a.m. at the intersection of Woodfield Road and West Frontage Road.
A preliminary investigation determined one vehicle was southbound on West Frontage Road and the other was eastbound on Woodfield, but it did not determine which vehicle was doing which.
Investigators did determine a blue 2003 Ford Explorer driven by a 44-year-old Schaumburg woman struck the passenger side of a white 2001 Infiniti QX4 driven by a 51-year-old Arlington Heights woman.
A 3-year-old girl was a passenger in the Ford Explorer while Moore was a passenger in the Infiniti.
The two vehicles came to rest after striking a traffic signal at the southeast corner of the intersection, police said.
All four people were taken to Alexian Brothers. Moore died at the hospital, while the other three were treated and released.
An autopsy will be conducted today, officials at the medical examiner's office said.
The roads were closed until 12:30 p.m. for the on-scene investigation. No charges will be considered until the investigation is complete, police said.
Anyone who may have witnessed the crash is asked to call the Schaumburg police department's traffic crash reconstruction team at (847) 882-3534.
