Bus Accident with Car: Crash on Interstate 90 Kills One Man, Injures Three


Video of I-90 crash aftermath showing driver side impact on a Honda sedan by the school bus, followed by departure of a charter bus with University of Wisconsin-Madison students leaving the scene (Video submitted by passerby/VN).

An accident just east of Arlington Heights Road on I-90 killed a man in
his car when it collided with a school bus Saturday afternoon about
12:40 p.m. A First Student school bus was carrying students from the
University of Wisconsin-Madison — only minor injuries reported from the
bus.

A Mid-America charter bus was dispatched to the scene to transfer about
twenty students from a German Club that was headed to Chicago for a
German Market event. The students were taken off the tollway to a
sheltered staging area.

Illinois State Police have an investigation team on the scene. The driver of
the Honda apparently lost control of his vehicle after he entered the curved
onramp from southbound Arlington Heights Road.

Eastbound Jane Addams Memorial Tollway (formerly the Northwest Tollway)
was backed up past Route 53 from Arlington Heights Road. Two other minor
accidents with minor injuries were reported east and west of the first
accident scene about 3:00 p.m. Saturday.

Republic Windows and Doors Employees Protest Job Loss, Benefits Loss After Bank of America Stops Line of Credit


View Larger Map

FRI DEC 5 2008 — More than 200 union workers staged a protest at Republic Windows and Doors after only a three-day warning that their plant was closing shop at 1333 North Hickory Avenue (on Goose Island, near Division and Halsted).

According to Mark Meinster, United Electrical Workers International Representative, workers put it to a vote and decided that they would stay at the plant at least for the weekend or until they get what they are owed, which is 75 days with health insurance for those 75 days.

Workers are frustrated and angry considering the event occurs while Bank of America received $25 billion in the recent federal bailout. Workers were heard chanting, “You got bailed out, we got sold out.”

Bank of America has agreed to meet with a representative from Luis Gutierrez’s office, a company representative and a union representative.

A prayer vigil is also being held for workers occupying the plant at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 6, 2008.
