A person was killed and two others seriously injured in a crash Thursday in west suburban Naperville.

A Nissan was traveling south on Naperville Boulevard at Washington Street about 8:45 a.m. when it was struck by a Hyundai traveling the opposite way, Naperville police said in a statement.

The crash seriously injured the driver of the Hyundai, a 64-year-old woman from Bolingbrook, and the occupants of the Nissan, a 61-year-old male driver and a 59-year-old female passenger from Lisle, police said.

All three were taken to hospitals, where one of them died, police said.
