31-year-old Plymouth man killed in highway crash remembered as great kid who was well liked; fundraiser created

A Plymouth man who was killed in a crash this week is being remembered.

According to Massachusetts State Police, at just before 9:45 a.m. on Wednesday, Massachusetts State Troopers responded to a single-vehicle crash on the Massachusetts Avenue Connector ramp to Frontage Road in South Boston.

Preliminary investigation indicates that a 2004 Dodge Durango was travelling on the Massachusetts Avenue Connector toward Frontage Road. The Durango 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 Durango’s driver, 31-year-old Casey Brown of Plymouth, was determined to be deceased on scene by medical personnel.

Brown played in the Carver Men’s Softball League. A teammate of his organized a GoFundMe fundraiser and described him as a great kid who was well liked, positive, and always upbeat.

Brown leaves behind his parents, two children, his girlfriend Jessie, and her son Bennett.

Jessie shared the news of Brown’s heartbreaking passing on social media.

“I never thought I’d lose my best friend. You can now be at peace. I love you forever.”

The crash remains under investigation by Troop H of the Massachusetts State Police, the State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section, the State Police Crime Scene Services Section, and investigators from the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office. Troopers were assisted by Boston Fire and EMS, MassDOT, and the Office of The Chief Medical Examiner.

Services have not yet been announced.
