A motorcyclist was killed in a crash Sunday in southwest suburban Summit.
Ramiro Rueda Jr., 24, was driving a black 2012 Kawasaki motorcycle about 10:20 p.m. when he lost control on the ramp from 1st Avenue to northbound I-55, according to Illinois State Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
Rueda, who lived in Little Village, was thrown from the bike after it hit a guardrail, authorities said. He was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 11:08 p.m.
An autopsy released Monday found that Rueda died of multiple injuries from the crash, the medical examiner’s office said.
The ramp was closed until 12:23 a.m., according to state police. The crash remains under investigation.
