A van driving on Chicago's Stevenson Expressway on Monday afternoon crashed after brake failure. The accident caused the death of two people, one a 17 year old girl and the other a man who was believed to be in his 20s. The crash occurred near County Line Road in Burr Ridge, Illinois around 12:15 p.m shortly after the van entered the expressway.

The van was lent to a Chicago labor agency, and it is believed it had faulty brakes causing the accident. The van veered across the center lane and off the guardrail, eventually flipping onto its side. There were 14 people in the van at the time of the crash. Those who survived did not suffer from serious injuries.

The families of the two people killed may be able to recover for the wrongful deaths of their family members and should contact an attorney to find out what claims they may have against the driver, owner of the van and the Chicago labor agency.
