BOURBONNAIS – One person is dead after a fatal crash Saturday afternoon.
According to Bradley Police it began Saturday when officers received two traffic complaints in reference to a black Chevrolet Camaro. Around 4:30 pm, multiple units were dispatched to 2700 East 4000N Rd for a single car crash, involving that vehicle.
“The vehicle, a black Chevrolet Camaro, left the roadway and struck a utility pole breaking it and continued striking a tree in the front yard of a residence where it came to rest.” Bradley Police said in a statement Monday.
