At approximately 10:51 p.m., the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office and Harvard Fire Protection District responded to a two-vehicle crash in the 9800 block of US Route 14 in Harvard.
Preliminary investigation indicates that a 2000 Honda Accord, driven by an 18-year-old Harvard man, was traveling southbound on US Route 14 when it crossed the center line and collided with a northbound 2010 Lexus RX350. The Honda then exited the roadway to the east and rolled over multiple times.
