A woman was killed in a multi-vehicle crash Monday in south suburban Matteson.
The 42-year-old was driving a black 2016 Kia Soul west about 6:15 a.m. in the 7000 block of Vollmer Road when she crossed over into eastbound lanes and struck a 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe head-on, according to preliminary information from Matteson police.
Paramedics on the scene reported that the woman wasn’t breathing, and they couldn’t locate a pulse, police said. She was transported to St. James Olympia Fields Hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Autopsy results released Tuesday found she died from her injuries and ruled her death an accident, the Cook County medical examiner’s office said.
The 32-year-old behind the wheel of the Hyundai was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, police said.
Matteson police are investigating the crash.
