Authorities identify young Mansfield man killed in three vehicle crash on I-95 in Sharon
A Mansfield man has died following a three-vehicle crash on Interstate 95 in Sharon on Thursday night, according to Massachusetts State Police.
Officials identified the person killed in the crash as Jordan McGrath-Edlund, 24, of Mansfield, who was driving a 2013 BMW. McGrath-Edlund was transported to Sturdy Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.
The crash happened just before 8 p.m. on I-95 southbound near Exit 17, and caused significant traffic delays after MassDOT shut down multiple lanes for the investigation.
Police said the cars involved in the crash were a 2013 BMW driven by McGrath-Edlund, a 2016 Subaru Impreza driven by a 34-year-old Providence man and a 2012 Honda CR-V driven by a 70-year-old Foxboro woman. Police say all three drivers were sent to the hospital for injuries.
A preliminary investigation suggests that the BMW as operating at a high rate of speed and making multiple lane changes before McGrath-Edlund struck the Impreza and the CR-V, causing those cars to roll over. The BMW also rolled into the center median.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
No further information has been released at this point.
