According to Indiana State Police, at 3:08 a.m., dispatchers at the Indiana Toll Road Post began to receive 911 calls of a wrong way driver on Indiana Toll Road at mile marker 5 near the Illinois Indiana state line.

The female driver of the Nissan, in her 30s, was declared deceased at the scene by the Lake County Coroner.  The driver of the Honda, a man in his 60s, was flown to the University of Chicago Hospital with potential life-threatening injuries, according to police. Alcohol and or drugs are believed to be a factor in this crash, police say.
