Traffic on Route 95 North at the Massachusetts line was backed up for about an hour and a half Saturday night after a deadly two-car accident.

Massachusetts State Police say that at about 5:30pm a Ford Explorer operated by 23 year-old Jessica Ebert from Attleboro hit a car driven by 18 year-old Jennifer Poissant from Pawtucket. The Explorer rolled over, killing 30 year-old Matthew Kercado from Taunton and a still-unidentified three year-old.

Ebert, 40 year-old Christopher Ebert, 42 year-old Heather Kercado and a 14 month-old were all transported to area hospitals.

Poissant's car ended up in the woods but she was not hurt.

The crash remains under investigation.

I know Jessica, mother and some family members from back in the day and it hurts to see she lost her daughter as I am a mother myself I know what it is to love a child thats your own.

My heart goes out to this family. I was a close friend of Mattys from RIC - He will be truely missed. It is always a lot harder when a young person loses their life so short - in a complete accident. My prayers go out to the family members that are still remained in the hospital.

I was driving on 95S when it occured and I want to assure the family members that even though I witnessed this private, tragic moment in their lives, the shock and grief I felt was not that of a stranger. My heart and prayers, as well as those of my community at St. Thomas's Espicopal Church in New Haven are with all of you.

they were not drinking. Matt was a close friend of mine who was 20, not 30 years old. he was in the car with his family driving home when his life was cut short. i will never forget you matty. please keep rude comments to yourselves. there is a grieving family involved here who doesnt need ignorance.
