LENDALE, AZ : 1 dead, 1 injured following wrong-way crash on the Loop 101 at Union Hills Drive on Wednesday, 31st July 2019

DPS officials reported a third straight day of wrong-way driving on Wednesday. This time, however, the incident turned deadly, with 20-year-old LaiQuan Lemon killed in a wrong-way crash on the Loop 101 at Union Hills Drive.

It was a horrific visual to see on the Loop 101, with a Nissan sedan completely wrecked. DPS officials say Lemon died in that car after the driver of a Chevrolet Malibu went northbound in the southbound lanes just before 11:00 p.m. Tuesday.

"Within minutes, it struck head-on with another vehicle, a darker color four-door sedan," said DPS Trooper Jonathan Montes.
