One person was killed and several others were injured in a crash Sunday in northwest suburban Crystal Lake.
The five-vehicle crash happened about 1:50 p.m. on Rakow Road east of Pyott Road, according to a statement from Crystal Lake police.
A 2019 Honda CR-V was heading west in the eastbound lanes of Rakow when it hit a 2004 Honda CR-V and a 2012 Ford Fusion that were heading east, police said.
