An elderly Geneva couple has died in a crash Friday afternoon.

Police said an 85-year-old driver and his 88-year-old wife died when their Toyota collided with a BMW along Bricher Road near Fisher Drive.

The crash occurred about 1:40 p.m. Friday when a dark blue, 2020 BMW X3 was traveling east on Bricher and collided with a blue 2005 Toyota Corolla as the Toyota was trying to turn west onto Bircher from Fisher, Geneva police said in a news release, citing a preliminary investigation.

The BMW came to rest in a wooded brush area north of the intersection and sparked with fire, which firefighters quickly extinguished.

The BMW was driven by an 18-year-old man, who had three passengers, ages 18 to 19, in the vehicle, police said. The driver and two passengers were medically released at the scene, but one passenger was taken to Northwestern Medicine Delnor Hospital in Geneva, according to the release.

The names of the man and woman who were killed were withheld pending notification of family members.

No charges had been filed as of Friday evening, but the crash remained under investigation by Geneva police, the Kane County Accident Reconstruction Team and the Kane County Coroner’s Office.

Geneva police had asked the public to avoid Bricher Road west of Randall Road Friday afternoon because of a crash described as severe. Bircher was closed between Peck and Camden roads for several hours, reopening about 7:40 p.m. Friday.

The Geneva Police and Fire departments, along with the Batavia Fire Department and Elburn & Countryside Fire Protection District, responded to the scene, and the Kane County Office of Emergency Management provided traffic assistance during the closure.
