Huntley woman dies after Christmas morning crash in Addison

A Huntley woman has died Friday from injuries she suffered in a Christmas morning crash in Addison, officials said.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office on Monday identified the woman as Karen Davis, 61. Her death was ruled accidental as a result of multiple injuries suffered in the crash.

Addison police said the crash occurred at about 9:30 a.m. Christmas Day.

Witnesses reported Davis’ vehicle was headed north on Villa Avenue just south of Lake Street when it veered into the southbound lanes for unknown reasons and left the road, crashing into a utility pole and junction box. No other vehicles were involved in the crash, police said.

Davis was taken to University of Chicago Medical Center and was pronounced dead Friday, according to the medical examiner’s report.
