A tragic head-on crash on Highway 44 in West Lock County claimed the life of a 36-year-old local man driving an SUV. It happened around 11.10 a.m. on Tuesday, April 21, just north of Highway 651. The semi-truck driver, a 53-year-old man traveling alone, walked away with injuries that aren't life-threatening and got rushed to the hospital.
