CHICAGO — A Niles man was killed and two others injured Friday morning after a single-vehicle crash on Lake Shore Drive, police said. 

Around 5:20 a.m. the car was driving southbound on Lake Shore Drive near West Lawrence Avenue and hit a median causing it to flip into the northbound lanes, said Officer Janel Sedevic, a police spokesman. 

One person was fatally injured and two others were taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center, said Sedevic.
