A Plymouth, Massachusetts man allegedly involved in a fatal Massachusetts highway crash is set to be arraigned.

According to Tim McGuirk of Massachusetts State Police, on August 30th, at approximately 10:30 p.m., State Police from the Bourne Barracks and Plymouth Fire and Rescue responded to reports of a 3-car crash on Route 3 South in Plymouth at mile marker 5.8.

Responding Troopers discovered a woman in her late 20s on scene who had been ejected from a Jeep Grand Cherokee driven by 30-year-old Anthony Bradley of Plymouth. EMS transported the woman to a nearby location where she could be med flighted to a Boston hospital. The woman died as a result of her injuries in the Boston hospital.

Multiple requests sent to Massachusetts State Police and the Plymouth County District Attorney’s Office to identify the deceased woman have gone unanswered.

Bradley sustained serious injuries that required hospitalization at Beth Israel Plymouth. He was also med flighted to a Boston hospital for additional care.  

Massachusetts State Police stated that preliminary information from witnesses indicates that Bradley may have been racing another vehicle at the time of the crash. As he traveled at a high rate of speed in the breakdown lane, witnesses indicated Bradley’s Jeep struck a Mini Cooper in the right travel lane that he was passing on his left side. The Jeep rolled over as a result of the crash, struck a third vehicle while crossing the highway, and came to rest straddling the left passing lane and the median.

The driver of a third vehicle, a Dodge Charger allegedly involved in the incident, turned himself in to authorities on August 31st.

Bradley will face several charges in connection with the crash, including motor vehicle homicide by reckless operation, negligent operation of a motor vehicle, breakdown lane violation, speeding, and a marked lanes violation.

He is scheduled to be arraigned at Plymouth District Court on Tuesday.  He has yet to be arraigned due to not being medically able to do so.
