COLES COUNTY, Ill. (WCIA) — The Coles County Sheriff’s Department is investigating a deadly crash that took place last week.

At approximately 11:07 p.m. on July 23, deputies from the Coles County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to a collision on Old State Road near County Road 400 East. Upon their arrival, they discovered a 2014 Ford SUV had been traveling east on Old State Road when it struck a man riding a mini bike.
