PEORIA Ill. – A Peoria woman is dead, following a multi-vehicle crash in Jackson County on Monday.
25 News reports 18-year-old Lyric Irby, of Peoria, was identified by the Jackson County Coroner’s Office yesterday as the person who died just after 6:00 P.M., on Illinois Route 13, north of Illinois Route 4.
The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office says Irby’s Honda Accord pulled into the northbound lane and began to pass other vehicles, and due to an insufficient amount of time, Irby’s vehicle crashed head-on with a Ford Edge that was going northbound.
