Man Killed In Saturday's West Town Car Crash Identified
Yonatan Monrroy-Madrid, 19, had been drinking beer and was speeding on Hubbard Street when he ran a stop sign at Ashland Avenue about 1:30 p.m. Saturday, T-boning a 2004 Toyota Camry, Assistant State's Attorney Bryan Grissman said during a bond hearing Monday.
The impact was so strong that the Camry, which had been heading north on Ashland, was pushed up onto a sidewalk, through a fence and into a parking lot, prosecutors said.
The Camry's driver, 57-year-old Phillip Pieczynski, died on the scene, said a spokeswoman for the Cook County Medical Examiner's office, which released Pieczynski's name on Wednesday.
