Man Killed In Crash With Tree Identified

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- A man who died after a head-on crash with a tree has been identified.

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office said Deandre Jordan was pronounced dead on June 22.

Jordan, 22, was one of the three people injured in a violent crash that happened around midnight on Upton Avenue North on June 13.

The other two people 19-year-old Semone Harris, of Minneapolis; and 21-year-old Italea House, of Plymouth — were taken to North Memorial Medical Center and Hennepin County Medical Center.

Harris was ejected from the car along with Jordan. Harris was in serious condition after the accident. House's injuries weren't as serious.

Police think speed was a factor in the crash.
