Updated 7/26/2021 5:35 PM Authorities say a 21-year-old Waukegan man died Saturday after he lost control of his vehicle and struck another car and a utility pole. Investigators believe Kajaun Hughs was driving a black Dodge Charger west on the 1900 block of Dugdale Road about 9 p.m. when he lost control of the vehicle. The Charger hit a black Honda Accord, then the pole, according to a news release issued Monday by the Waukegan Police Department.
The electrical lines were live and in contact with the Dodge, which prevented officers from approaching until ComEd employees arrived. Hughs was taken to Vista Medical Center East, where he died from his injuries.
