A 33 year old Gary woman was pronounced dead at the scene of a crash in Illinois early Saturday near Manteno. The Times reports Randi Jackson was a passenger in a minivan which, for an unknown reason, lost control and struck an abandon pickup on I-57. Published reports say the driver, 28 year old Stephine Cobb, also of Gary, was initially transported to a Kankakee hospital, before being taken into custody on charges of driving under the influence and aggravated driving while license revoked.
