Wilbert Parker, a passenger in a 2008 Chevrolet sedan, died on the scene, the sheriff's office said. Hampshire and Burlington fire crews worked for nearly an hour to extricate the female driver of the sedan. She was then airlifted to St. Anthony's Hospital in Rockford in critical condition.
Preliminary investigation shows a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder was driving north on Walker Road and initially stopped at the stop sign at the intersection, but then drove into the intersection, hitting the sedan, police said.
