17-year-old Plymouth County teen dies from injuries sustained in crash
A Massachusetts teen has died from injuries sustained in a weekend crash.
According to Chief Michael Carbone, at just after 12:15a.m. on Saturday, Duxbury Police and Fire were dispatched to Harrison Street for a report of a single vehicle crash into a tree.
Upon arrival, officers found the operator and lone occupant, a 17-year-old female from Pembroke, entrapped in the vehicle. The juvenile was unresponsive and needed to be extricated from the vehicle with the Jaws of Life. Life-saving measures were provided on scene and the juvenile was transported via Med Flight to MA General Hospital.
On Monday evening, the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner notified the Duxbury Police that the juvenile operator from the crash had succumbed to her injuries.
The Duxbury Police, along with our partners from the MA State Police, including their Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section, are actively investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash.
