State Police: Massachusetts man killed in New Year’s Eve crash on Route 95
Authorities says that a Massachusetts man has been killed after hitting a barrier on one side of the road and a guard rail on the opposite side on Saturday.
According to Rhode Island State Police, just after 11:45 a.m., members of the State Police and Hope Valley Fire and Rescue handled a fatal motor vehicle accident.
An investigation revealed that the vehicle was traveling on Route 95 North just south of Kingstown Road in the Town of Richmond.

The vehicle then veered to the right crossing all lanes and exited the right side of the highway striking the guard rail end which caused the vehicle to roll over.
The operator was transported to Kent County Hospital where he died as a result of his injuries.
The driver was identified as 43-year-old Eric S. Qualey of Cambridge, Massachusetts.
