Adverse weather conditions are blamed for an accident that occurred Thursday morning on Interstate 57, south of Tantoul.

A twenty-year-old woman from Chicago Ridge was driving southbound in the right lane with another woman around 7:45 a.m. when she lost control of her car after hitting a patch of ice. Her vehicle crashed into an SUV that was also travelling southbound in the left-hand lane and spun onto the right shoulder. The other vehicle was pushed into the median. The two women were injured, but the 35-year-old driver of the SUV refused medical treatment.
