June 19, 2009, by Jeffrey J. Kroll

A crash involving two cars occurred Thursday, June 18, 2009 around 7:40 p.m. near South Cicero Avenue and West 61st Street. Chicago Police Department (Wentworth Area) detectives are conducting a homicide investigation into whether one of the vehicles intentionally attempted for force another vehicle or pedestrian off the road. It is unclear if the drivers and occupants of the two vehicles knew each other or if this was a case of serious road rage.

After the crash, two people were in serious-to-critical condition and three people were in good-to-fair condition; however, the Chicago police were notified early Friday that one of the individuals had died at Christ Hospital.
