There was a “head-on collision” Friday night (December 5, 2014) in West Chicago, Illinois. One person died and two people were injured as a result of this collision.
Details regarding the cause of this DuPage County crash appear limited at this time.
A judge set bail at $500,000 Monday for Omar Montoya Medina, 29, of the 100 block of East Pomeroy Street, who has been charged with two counts of aggravated DUI.
Police said Montoya Medina's blood alcohol level was 0.16 — twice the legal limit — when he struck a car being driven by Antonio Alvarez, 37, of Warrenville, about 11:07 p.m. Friday in West Chicago
Alvarez was attempting to turn onto Illinois Route 59 from Garys Mill Road when his vehicle was struck by Montoya Medina's vehicle, which was northbound on Route 59, according to authorities.
Both vehicles were engulfed in flames, according to police, and Alvarez was pronounced dead at the scene. Montoya Medina and his passenger were transported to a hospital suffering from burns and other injuries, prosecutors said. The passenger was released from the hospital that night, police said.
Montoya Medina's next court date is Jan. 5 in front of Judge Robert Kleeman.
