A 22 year old Mattoon man was killed in a multi-car crash on I-74 in Vermilion County. The Vermilion County Coroner, Jane McFadden identified the victim as Dylan Clark.

Illinois State Police say the accident happened Saturday in the west bound lanes of the interstate by Fithian. A preliminary investigation showed Clark lost control of his vehicle and crashed, coming to rest in the left lane. Another auto then struck Clark’s car. Clark subsequently stood in a lane of traffic and was hit by a third vehicle.

Both occupants of the second car were taken to a hospital for non-life threatening injuries. Portions of the Interstate were closed for several hours after the crash. The state police and the state’s attorney’s office continue to investigate the incident.
