Trooper Colin McKelligan of the Massachusetts State Police was dispatched to the scene of the accident. Trooper McKelligan’s initial investigation indicates that a 2003 Buick Rendezvous was traveling on Route 93 Southbound when the operator lost control of the vehicle. The vehicle the crashed into the guardrail before coming to rest in the right travel lane. The driver then exited her vehicle and was standing behind the vehicle. At that time, a 2005 Nissan Altima, which was traveling southbound, struck the Buick, pushing it into the driver standing outside.
The driver of the Buick who has been identified only as a 29-year-old Taunton woman, was pronounced deceased at the scene. The operator of the Nissan, identified only as a 20-year-old Brockton woman, was transported to Boston Medical Center for treatment of injuries. At this time, her injuries are considered serious but not life-threatening.
The cause of this crash remains under investigation. The State Police Collision Analysis team, along with accident reconstruction specialists and the Crime Scene Services Section, Troop H detectives, and Troopers assigned to the Norfolk County District Attorney’s Office are all investigating the fatal crash. No charges have been filed at this time and it is unclear if any charges will be forthcoming.
The identity of the deceased is being withheld pending family notification.
