A 44-year-old man was driving the semi. He was taken to a hospital, and is expected to be OK.

Toxicology results are pending; however, police don’t think it was a factor.

An autopsy showed Lebert died from blunt force injuries, as a result of the crash, the coroner’s office said.

Chopper 7 was over the scene about 6:44 a.m., as crews towed a white semi.

The semi’s fully loaded cargo was transferred to another truck.

All roads reopened by 8:28 a.m.

Mundelein police and the Lake County Major Crash Assistance Team continue to investigate.
