A fatal speeding accident occurred on East Lake Avenue in north suburban Glenview, leaving 1 dead and 3 injured, according to fire officials

GLENVIEW, Ill. (WLS) — One person died in a high-speed accident in a northern suburb on Sunday, according to fire officials.

Several vehicles were involved in the crash in the 1200 block of East Lake Avenue shortly after 11 p.m

One person died and three people were taken to local hospitals in critical condition, fire officials said.

The 911 caller witnessed the accident and said one of the drivers was speeding shortly before the accident.

“When he sped in front of me, he was probably traveling at about 90 degrees if I had to guess,” one witness said. “He put it on the floor and turned off the light. There was no reason for it, I don’t think it was road rage or anything.”

Glenview police are investigating.

There is still no information about the official cause of the crash.
