A 41-year-old man was killed in a crash Saturday morning on the Tri-State Tollway near south suburban Hazel Crest.
The crash happened at 5:08 a.m. on Interstate 294 near Halsted Street, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
Albert Blanchard, of the Far South Side Brainerd neighborhood, was pronounced dead at the scene less than an hour later, the medical examiner’s office said. An autopsy on Sunday found he died from multiple blunt-force injuries related to the crash and his death was ruled an accident.
