Woman dies following I-57 crash in Riverdale

(RIVERDALE) A woman hurt in a rollover crash last month on I-57 near south suburban Riverdale has died.

Carmen McDonald, 30, was the front seat passenger in a Ford Explorer that lost control and crashed near 138th Street about 12:50 p.m. on Nov. 22, according to State Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
