Deadly crash shuts down outbound Eisenhower Expressway in Chicago's west suburbs

Parts of the Eisenhower Expressway in Chicago's western suburbs were closed early Sunday morning because of a deadly multi-vehicle crash.

Video shot in the early morning hours Sunday showed the outbound lanes closed following the crash at Home Avenue runs halfway between Harlem and Oak Park avenues — the equivalent of Chicago's Sayre Avenue.

A body was spotted at the scene, along with at least four damaged cars.

Following the crash, the outbound Eisenhower was closed between Harlem and Central avenues, a stretch of two miles. 

CBS News Chicago has reached out to Illinois State Police to learn what caused the crash.
