The crash was located near the southbound shoulder near a utility pole about 290 feet north of Route 22. Preliminary investigation determined that the vehicle the Arlington Heights woman was driving — a 2015 Subaru Outback — was northbound when it crossed the median and crashed into an oncoming southbound vehicle. The southbound vehicle was a 2004 Jeep Liberty.

There appeared to be fresh tire tracks in the snow on the northbound shoulder south of the crash scene that appeared to veer toward the crash scene on the opposite side of the row. There is no confirmation whether these tracks are connected to the crash.

The Arlington Heights woman, was not wearing her seatbelt, and was ejected from her vehicle.

No victim identities were released, as is normal until family members are notified.

The crash is being investigated by the Lake County Sheriff’s Technical Crash Investigations Unit.
