A 19-year-old Bloomington man was killed and another injured early Saturday in a single-vehicle crash near Downs.

The crash happened around midnight near 8285 North 1900 East Road near Downs, McLean County Coroner Kathleen Davis said in a statement. Killed in the crash was David D. Stiles, who was ejected from the vehicle he was driving after it left the roadway at a high rate of speed and struck a tree, Davis said.

Stiles died from injuries sustained in the crash. Toxicology results are pending. The other male occupant of the vehicle was treated at an area hospital, Davis said.

The crash remains under investigation by the McLean County sheriff's department, coroner's office, and Illinois State Police. Downs and Bloomington fire departments also responded to the crash.
