Dead trucker identified:

The truck driver who died after a two-vehicle collision Tuesday in Long Grove was identified as 51-year-old Brian Pierce of Milwaukee, the Lake County coroner's office said. Pierce suffered multiple injuries in the crash on Route 22 at Krueger Road, an autopsy revealed. Toxicology test results are pending, the coroner's office said. The driver of a second truck was injured, too. Pierce was driving a semitrailer truck that was headed east but crossed into westbound traffic and hit a dump truck, authorities said.
