Hampshire man dies after crash on Interstate 90

Authorities say a 57-year-old Hampshire man was killed when the car he was driving on Interstate 90 near Schaumburg Thursday hit a guardrail and overturned.

Illinois State Police said the man was driving alone westbound on I-90 near the Roselle Road exit just after 4 p.m. when he apparently lost control of the vehicle and hit a guardrail, which caused the vehicle to overturn.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office identified the driver as Charles Finch.

Finch was transported to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead from his injuries.

Investigators were on scene for nearly four hours before all lanes of westbound I-90 were reopened.
