Gary,IN : Glen Ellyn man killed in four-vehicle crash in Oak Brook on November, Thursday 30th 2017
n 84-year-old Glen Ellyn man was killed Thursday after being involved in a four-vehicle crash at Midwest Road and 22nd Street in Oak Brook.
Chen Tien had no passengers in his silver Toyota Prius when he was struck at 1:24 p.m. by a red Chevrolet truck driven by a 53-year-old Park Forest man, according to Oak Brook police.
The truck was headed north on Midwest Road and went through a red light at 22nd Street, said Oak Brook officer Garrett Wolf. The truck struck the Prius, along with a Ford Taurus with two Chicago residents inside, and a gray Lexus, driven by a Hinsdale man.
Church said the three vehicles that were struck by the truck were traveling west on 22nd Street. The driver of the truck, along with Tien and the two Chicago residents, were taken to Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove, Church said. Tien was pronounced dead at the hospital. The Hinsdale man refused medical attention.
"Reports were that the red Chevy truck was driving erratically, at least from 31st Street," Church said. "The westbound cars were in the middle of the intersection when they were struck."
Church said no charges had been filed against the driver, as of 5 p.m. Thursday.
"We're doing a full investigation and not going to draw any conclusions until things are concrete," he said.
