As he was north on the Roosevelt Boulevard at Adams Ave., a newer-model black SUV, initially believed to be a Dodge Durango but now thought more likely to be a Jeep Grand Cherokee, lost control and struck a 2002 Ford F-150. The collision caused the truck to overturn.
Williams, of the 2600 North 23rd Street, was partially ejected and pronounced deceased at the scene. Two passengers, ages 52 and 75, were transported to Albert Einstein Medical Center, where they are listed in stable condition.
According to reports,Williams married his high school sweetheart in 2014.
