Woodstock, IL – A three-vehicle crash on Kishwaukee Valley Road left three people injured Tuesday afternoon, including a 19-year-old Poplar Grove woman in critical condition.
McHenry County Sheriff’s Office, Woodstock Fire & Rescue, and Marengo Fire & Rescue responded at 4:18 p.m. to the crash in unincorporated Woodstock.
Investigators say a 2022 Chevrolet Equinox was stopped eastbound, waiting to turn left, when a 2000 Ford Van hit its rear left side. The impact sent the Ford into the westbound lane, where it collided head-on with a 2019 Honda CRV.
Emergency crews transported the 19-year-old Ford driver to Northwestern Medicine Woodstock Hospital before airlifting her to Advocate Condell Medical Center. She remains in critical condition. The 22-year-old Ford passenger was taken to Northwestern Medicine Huntley Hospital in good condition.
The 37-year-old Honda driver was also taken to Huntley Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The 62-year-old Chevrolet driver was not injured.
Authorities continue investigating the crash.
