ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP) - Authorities say a driver lost control of an SUV while speeding on Route 95 North in Attleboro, rolled over across several lanes and was ejected from the vehicle, suffering fatal injuries.
State police say the 37-year-old driver was taken to Rhode Island Hospital, where he was pronounced dead after the Monday evening crash.
Police on Tuesday identified the victim as James Lockhart of Pawtucket, Rhode Island.
Police say an initial investigation shows that the man was not wearing a seat belt and that speed was a factor in the crash. The accident remains under investigation.

Dear Prudence, I don't know how you could have possibly described that scene. My husband was WITH Jim holding his head and he never once sat up or screamed. I think you may have seen a witness but it was not Jim. I'm sorry.

We were right behind this poor man. He was turning into the middle lane from the fast lane but turned his steering wheel too fast and the truck started rocking and then flipped over. My children witnessed this horrible accident, my husband tried to help this man but his injuries were too severe. Please people, wear your seat belts and slow down.
