Toxicology tests came back negative in a crash that killed two young adults and a toddler Monday evening. A Honda Civic traveling northbound on Cicero was hit head-on by a speeding Toyota Camry. The baby's mother and the driver traveling in the Civic survived as did the driver of the Camry.
According to reports, about 9:30 Monday evening the group in the Honda Civic was heading North on Cicero when a speeding Toyota Camry came toward them with no lights on. Reportedly, the driver of the Camry was involved in a hit-and-run at Belmont and Cicero just moments before the second accident.
Thirteen-month-old Joshua Molina Jr. was in a car seat but partially ejected from the car. Twenty-one-year-old Aldo Maldonado was thrown from the car and 20-year-old Orlando Rodriguez was pinned in the car upon impact. All three died as a result of the crash.
The driver of the Camry, a 55-year-old Skokie, Ill. man, was initially ticketed for leaving the scene of an accident and driving too fast in connection with the first crash and with negligent driving in the second crash. Police said they are continuing to investigate the events surrounding the accident.
