One man was killed and another injured in a crash Tuesday afternoon on the South Side.

A white Chevrolet Impala was speeding south in the 4100 block of South Wentworth at 1:11 p.m. when the driver failed to stop at a stop sign and struck a silver Chevrolet Malibu that was heading west on Root Street, according to Chicago Police.

The impact caused the Impala to strike a pole, police said. The driver of the Impala, a 20-year-old man, was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where his condition was stabilized.

A passenger in the Impala, 29-year-old Frank Williams of the Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood, was also taken to Northwestern, where he was pronounced dead at 1:33 p.m., according to police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office. Police said he was 19.

The people inside the Malibu refused treatment at the scene.
