BROCKTON – A Pembroke man was killed Thursday after a two-vehicle collision in Norwell, Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz and Norwell Police Chief Edward Lee have announced.
At approximately 1:30 p.m., Norwell Police began to receive multiple 911 calls for reports of a crash between a truck and a motorcycle in the area of 111 Pond Street. Norwell Police and Fire responded and located a Toyota Tacoma truck and a Kawasaki motorcycle. The motorcycle operator was suffering from apparent serious injuries. He was transported to South Shore Hospital where he was pronounced deceased. He has been identified as 28-year-old Jacob Foss of Pembroke. The operator of the Toyota Tacoma was also transported to South Shore Hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries. He is not being identified at this time.
The crash remains under investigation, but preliminarily, it appears the Toyota truck was traveling east to west on Pond Street before attempting to take a left turn into a business establishment. While attempting the turn, the truck was struck on the passenger side door by the Kawasaki motorcycle operated by Foss.
The crash and investigation closed down busy Pond Street to one lane of traffic for several hours. Investigation into the fatal crash is ongoing, and is being conducted by Massachusetts State Police and the Norwell Police Department.
