On May 14, Chicago police reported that two cars collided near the same location, with one of the vehicles subsequently hitting beloved mother and grandmother Maria Ochoa, who passed away at the hospital.

Police say of the drivers, a 26-year-old man, was issued multiple citations, including failing to reduce speed.

“We know Archer Avenue has a lot of speeding. We know there’s a lot of drag racing. There’s a lot of accidents. We want to prevent those in the future and to make this terrible tragedy have some meaning,” stated family attorney Frank Avila.

The victim in Wednesday’s pedestrian crash was also believed to be an elderly woman

No further information about Wednesday’s crash was immediately available.

ABC7 has reached out to Chicago police for more information.
