Naperville girl killed in motorcycle crash

A 14-year-old Naperville girl was killed in a motorcycle crash on Interstate 55 while riding with her father, officials said.

Ashley Wilson was riding with her 54-year-old father on southbound I-55 under I-355 around 9:35 p.m. Wednesday when the bike went down, struck the median and skated along the highway's left shoulder, officials said.

Wilson was pronounced dead at the scene, while her father was taken to Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove with nonlife-threatening injuries.

He was cited for having an invalid driver's license, which expired in 2010, as well as no insurance, police said.

Police are continuing to investigate.
