ATTLEBORO – At approximately 6:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 30, State Police troopers were dispatched to a motor vehicle accident involving a Demoulas Supermarket tractor-trailer and a car.
According to Massachusetts State Police, the crash took place on Route 295 north right before the interchange with Interstate 95.
The Demoulas tractor-trailer was a 2007 Mack 600 truck pulling a trailer. The driver of the tractor-trailer was a 44-year-old Lowell man.
The driver of the car was pronounced deceased at the scene.
Police say the victim’s name is not being released at the present time because his/her next of kin notifications are ongoing.
