A press release from the police department states the men were northbound on Orchard Road. The incident occurred sometime before 12:30 a.m. Wednesday when the vehicle left the roadway and collided with a nearby tree. It’s unclear from the accident reports whether Crowder or Daimaree was operating the vehicle at the time.
Officials from the Kane County Coroner’s Office reportedly arrived on the scene at about 1:15 a.m. Both men were declared dead from their wounds.
Preliminary results from autopsies conducted Wednesday suggest that Crowder and Walker died from “multiple injuries due to automobile mishap,” according to accident reports from the coroner’s office.
Investigators did not state whether the vehicle was speeding at the time of the wreck or whether either occupant was wearing a seatbelt.
“Toxicology results were collected at the time of the autopsy and (were) sent to a forensic laboratory,” the release from the Kane County Coroner’s Office stated. Toxicology results were not immediately made available to the public.
Officials with the Montgomery Police Department, as well as the Kane County Coroner’s Office, continue to investigate the wreck. If you have information about the incidents or the events leading up to it, you can call police at 331-212-9059.
