Brockton man killed in Route 24 crash
A Brockton man is dead after a crash on Route 24.
At approximately 8:20 p.m., troopers from the State Police – Milton Barracks received reports of a mattress in the roadway and a vehicle off the road, on Route 24 Northbound, just north of Exit 20 in Randolph.
According to Massachusetts State Police, Troopers responded and removed a mattress from the highway. They subsequently found a sedan that had gone off the roadway and struck a tree. The driver, and only occupant, Stefon C. Thomas, 32, of Brockton, was determined to be deceased on scene as a result of injuries sustained in the crash.
It is unclear at this time, if the mattress on the roadway was a contributing factor to the crash.
The remaining facts and circumstances remain under investigation by troopers assigned to the State Police Milton Barracks, Troop H Headquarters, State Police Detective Unit assigned to Norfolk County District Attorney’s Office, State Police Crime Scene Services Section (CSSS), State Police Collision Analysis Reconstruction Section (CARS), Randolph Fire & EMS Departments, and the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MA DOT) all assisted on scene.

Why the hell was a mattress on the highway? Because some idiot didn’t secure it properly on their vehicle, and some poor driver veered to avoid it….I hope you find the jerk who belongs to this mattress and charge them for manslaughter.
