Family demands justice for woman hit, killed by truck on I-55
CHICAGO (CBS) -- Family and friends of a woman killed by a semi-trailer truck during a hit-and-run last week are demanding justice.
Illinois State Police said Perla Andrade died early Friday morning, when she stepped out of a car on the shoulder on I-55 near Bolingbrook.
The truck hit Andrade and another man, and kept on going.
