Chicago, IL : 2 killed, 3 others injured in crash in the 4800 block of West Chicago Avenue on Saturday, 8th June 2019

Two people were killed and several others were injured in a crash Saturday after a driver fled a traffic stop in Austin on the West Side.

Officers tried to stop a 2012 Kia sedan about 9:20 p.m. in the 4800 block of West Chicago Avenue in Austin, according to preliminary information from Chicago police. The driver fled southbound on Pulaski Road “at a high rate of speed” and hit a 2007 Honda CRV head-on.

Jaquan T. Shockley, 17, and 23-year-old Marquise Willis were in the Kia, police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said.

Shockley was pronounced dead at Stroger Hospital, authorities said. An autopsy conducted Sunday determined he died from multiple injuries he received in the car crash and his death was ruled an accident.
