Three of the men were found inside the car and one man was ejected, according to Lockport Township Fire Protection District Battalion Chief John Kure, who said all four men were pronounced dead at the scene.They each died from injuries caused by the crash, according to initial examinations.

Crest Hill Police Chief Dwayne Wilkerson told Chicago Breaking News speed may have been involved in the crash.
