A Plymouth man has been identified as the driver of a car that crashed through the barrier of an intersection onto a highway ramp on I-93 in Boston.
Massachusetts State Police say at around 9:40 a.m. Wednesday Troopers responded to a single-vehicle crash on the Massachusetts Avenue Connector ramp to Frontage Road in South Boston.
A preliminary investigation has indicated that a 2004 Dodge Durango was travelling on the Massachusetts Avenue Connector toward Frontage Road when it struck a concrete barrier at the intersection with Frontage Road, caught fire, and came to rest on the exit 16 offramp from Interstate 93.
The driver, identified as 31-year-old Casey Brown was determined to be deceased on scene by medical personnel.
As a result of the crash numerous ramps of the Interstate 93 and Interstate 90 exchange needed to be closed and Frontage Road at the South Boston Bypass and the Mass Ave Connector to Frontage Road northbound were closed for several hours.
The incident remains under investigation.
