Elgin traffic slowed by evening crash
Westbound traffic on Route 20 between Shales Parkway and Route 31 in Elgin was temporarily reduced to one lane after a crash Tuesday.
One driver involved in the two-vehicle crash was cited for failing to reduce speed to avoid an accident, Elgin Police Deputy Chief Bill Wolf said.
About 6:35 p.m. the driver abruptly hit the brakes, and the vehicle spun out of control. The vehicle struck the median and then another, Wolf said.
No injuries were reported.
