Authorities have identified the driver who died after crashing into a concrete wall while exiting a Minneapolis freeway over the weekend.
The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office said that Hangasu A. Jillo, 32, of Minneapolis suffered numerous injuries in the crash on the exit ramp from Interstate 94 to Washington Avenue N. at about 7:20 a.m. Saturday.
He was not wearing his seat belt, the State Patrol reported. Jillo died less than 30 minutes later at HCMC, the Medical Examiner's Office reported.
Jillo was the father of four children, the youngest of whom was born nine days before Jillo's death, according to an online fundraising campaign on behalf of his family.
