Joint Release: Middlesex District Attorney’s Office and Massachusetts State Police Ask for the Public’s Help Identifying Vehicle in Fatal Motorcycle Crash

WOBURN – Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan and Massachusetts State Police are asking for the public’s help identifying the vehicle believed to be involved in the fatal crash that occurred around midnight on Tuesday morning on interstate 95 North, north of the exit 35 off ramp, in the town of Woburn. 

The crash resulted in the death of a motorcycle operator, Matthew R. Carr, 23, of Woburn. The driver of the other vehicle involved did not remain on scene following the crash.

The preliminary investigation suggests that the involved vehicle may be a red or maroon colored, multi-axle dump truck, or tractor trailer.  Based on the circumstances of the crash, the vehicle may also have damage to the tire or wheel area.  The vehicle is believed to have been travelling northbound on interstate 95 at the time of the crash.

Mr. Carr, the motorcycle operator, was driving a Black 2012 Suzuki GSX-R600.

Investigators are asking anyone who has information about the crash or the vehicles involved, to please call Massachusetts State Police-Danvers at (979) 538-6161 or Massachusetts State Police assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office at (781) 897-6600. Tips may be anonymous.

Police are specifically seeking:

  • Anyone who may have seen either vehicle operating on Route 95 NB shortly before midnight in the area of exit 35 in Woburn and areas to the north, and/or Route 93 SB from beginning at exit 37A on Route 95 and areas to the south on Route 93; or
  • Any area repair shops that may have seen a vehicle matching the truck’s description with damage to the tire or wheel areas.

This is an open and ongoing investigation being conducted by the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office, Massachusetts State Police, Troop A and the Massachusetts State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section (CARS).
