Narrative
GALE, IL – A driver of a black Toyota pickup truck crashed head-on into a white Lexus sedan near the Illinois and Missouri state line, resulting in two people succumbing to fatal wounds Tuesday.
This collision occurred before 2:45 p.m. on Route 3. It is not immediately clear why the driver of the black Toyota pickup truck drifted off the southbound lanes and into the northbound lanes.
In addition, it is unclear if it was the two motorists who died or if the passengers were with them. This detail, along with others, will be posted in an updated article as new information surfaces.
If you were involved in a collision that resulted in a fatality or sustained injuries, then you will want to have a copy of your Sauget crash report before you file a claim with an insurance company.
