The driver of a Ford Explorer that rolled down an embankment and flipped over on the Eisenhower Extension in Addison this morning, killing four women and injuring four other people, has been charged with having no driver's license and issued other citations, police said.
Three men in the 2003 Ford Explorer, also day workers, were seriously injured. The driver, who worked for the Chicago-based agency that employed the laborers, was traveling too fast when the vehicle left the road about 6:15 a.m. just west of Illinois Route 83, state police said.
Authorities said Margot Santillan, 31, of Chicago, was transporting the seven workers to a job in the western suburbs.
