GLENDALE, Ariz. — Several people ran from the scene of a crash in Glendale that killed one person Saturday night, officials say. 

The Arizona Department of Public Safety said there were two crashes in the same area. The first rollover happened on westbound Loop 101 in the area of 75th Avenue. There were no injuries from this crash. 

A second crash then happened right behind the first at 67th Avenue, resulting in at least one death. 

DPS said multiple people were reported running from the crash scene at 67th Avenue, but a conflicting report said nobody was outstanding.
