VIDEO: Crash on I-90 between Roselle Road and Meacham Road.
Schaumburg firefighter/paramedics and Illinois State Police responded about 2:20 PM Friday to a report of a serious crash on I-90 between Meacham Rd and Roselle Rd near Schaumburg.. First responders received several calls of a serious crash with a car and a guard rail. A sedan was up on a guard rail and at least 15 feet of guard rail were destroyed.
The front end of the car and the driver’s side were severely damaged. The crash ripped the engine out of the car.
The driver was immediately removed from the car, and transported to a local hospital. No word on the severity of injuries.
HELP trucks were also on the scene, and crews worked to temporarily repair the guard rail. A large piece of wood from the guard rail flew into the middle of Wiley Road near Penny Lane, just south of I-90.
Hillside Towing recovered the vehicle.
