first snow brings accidents

As the Chicago area experienced its **first snow of the season**, local fire departments were kept busy responding to multiple accidents. This morning, Jeff Rudolph captured a two-car head-on collision on Route 173, west of Delaney Road in Wadsworth, IL. The Newport Township Fire Protection District (FPD) deployed several units to the scene, with additional support from Zion and Winthrop Harbor fire departments. Six individuals were transported for treatment, and while injuries were reported, they did not appear to be life-threatening.
