On September 26, 2025 at approximately 6:13 PM Newton County Deputies were dispatched to the area of CR 600 E just north of CR 1125 for the report of a two-vehicle crash.

 

Preliminary investigation by Deputy Duhamell revealed a southbound Hyundai passenger car (driven by a 40-year-old Hebron female) collided with a northbound Ford SUV pulling a camper (driven by a 49-year-old Demotte man).

 

The passenger car struck the driver’s side of the Ford SUV then continued into the camper, causing significant damage to the camper and Hyundai. The female driver of the Hyundai vehicle was entrapped in her vehicle and had to be extricated from the vehicle with significant injuries. She was flown from the scene by Lutheran Air to a Chicago Hospital where she unfortunately succumbed to her injuries. The driver of the Ford SUV refused medical treatment on scene.

 

The roadway was closed for approximately 7 hours for investigation and cleanup of the scene.
