Excerpts from ABC7chicago.com:

One person died and one person was injured early Friday morning in a rollover crash on the Tri-State Tollway at milepost 20 after a tractor-trailer heading west on I-94 lost a wheel around 5:50 a.m. between Everett Road and Route 60 near Mettawa.

The driver lost control, struck a car, hit the concrete median, and overturned. The truck driver was thrown from the cab and died at the scene. The car’s driver was transported with non life-threatening injuries .
