One person was killed and at least three others injured in a crash Thursday night in West Town.

About 11:25 p.m., a 58-year-old woman was driving her silver Lexus north in the 100 block of South Western Avenue when she attempted to make a u-turn and struck a Chevy minivan also traveling north, Chicago police said.

The woman was transported to Stroger Hospital where she was pronounced dead, police said. The Cook County medical examiner’s office has not yet released information on her death.

The woman’s 17-year-old son was riding as a passenger in the car, police said. He was transported to the same hospital in fair condition, according to police.

A 33-year-old man driving the Chevy and his passenger, a 36-year-old man, were both taken to the same hospital in good condition, police said.
