Default Another Civic Loser bites it

CHICAGO -- A three-car crash tied up the Stevenson Expressway Sunday
night.

Seven people were injured around 11 p.m. when a car crashed into the
back of two other cars near Central Avenue.

Many drivers and witnesses said a trauma nurse on her way home from a
shift helped to calm and treat injured victims.

None of the injuries were life-threatening, officials said.

However, a separate crash on the Stevenson killed a man earlier in the
evening.

Saeed Saheem, 23, was driving his Honda **Civic** in the right lane
south on the expressway just past the First Avenue exit near Summit
around 8:30 p.m. when he merged into the center lane, state police
said.

But Saheem swerved into the left lane and struck a Toyota Camry, police
said. The Honda rolled from the impact and slammed into a concrete
wall.

The victim was not wearing a seatbelt and during the rollover, his head
hit the wall, according to Griffin.

Saheem, a resident of Kentucky, was pronounced dead at an area
hospital.
