Rollover Truck Crash Involves Three Vehicles, 4 Injured At Algonquin Rd And Busse Rd, Mount Prospect
Mount Prospect police and firefighter/paramedics responded about 3:00 PM Friday to a truck rollover crash involving three other vehicles at Mount Prospect, IL. Police and firefighter/paramedics received a report that a truck was on a car.
Firefighter/paramedics arrived within minutes and immediately went to work on extrication involving a semi-trailer dump truck on its side with the tractor on the driver's side of a sedan.
Four people were injured in the crash. The woman in the sedan was trapped in her vehicle. Heavy rescue squads from Schaumburg Fire Department were called to the scene, and Hillside Towing cranes were used to lift the truck cab slightly to assist with extrication.
Victims were transported to Northwest Community Hospital, Alexian Brothers Medical Center, and Advocate Lutheran General Hospital.
One firefighter was also transported to Northwest Community Hospital for heat illness.
Apparently the truck was eastbound on Algonquin Road and crashed into the front end of a sedan that was in the southbound left turn lane of Busse Road to eastbound Algonquin Road. The truck then jackknifed and rolled on its side with the tractor crushing the drivers side of a sedan that was westbound in the left land of Algonquin Road, just east of Busse Road. A minivan was also struck in the crash.
Most of the injuries were reported to be minor injuries, but the victim that was trapped was an older female whose exact condition was not known.
Traffic was blocked in both directions for an extended period on Algonquin Road.
