WEST DUNDEE-- The Kane County Sheriff's department is investigating a freak accident that left a West Dundee woman dead.
Police say Jaqueline Hanson was backing her Dodge Durango SUV into her driveway, when she left the vehicle without putting it in park and was crushed by it.
Police believe the woman either tripped or was dragged down by the vehicle, which kept moving and rolled over the woman. Hansen was taken to Sherman Hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Foul play has been ruled out.
