A 23-year-old man was killed in a single-vehicle crash Saturday morning on the Near West Side.

Rayel J. Jallah was driving a 2017 Volkswagen Jetta west about 4:30 a.m. in the 900 block of West Randolph when the car left the road and hit a concrete median, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

Jallah was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 5:19 a.m., authorities said. He lived in the Lincoln Square neighborhood on the Northwest Side.

An autopsy found he died of blunt force head injuries, and his death was ruled an accident.

The police Major Accidents Investigation Unit is investigating.
