    Authorities shut down part of a highway in Seekonk after a deadly car crash on Tuesday afternoon.

    Troopers responding to a report of a three-vehicle crash on Route 195 westbound near Exit 1 in Seekonk found a 2022 Toyota Highlander, a 2022 Ford F650, and a 2020 Kenworth tractor-trailer had all collided, according to State Police.

    Officials say the driver of the Toyota, a 36-year-old Springfield man, succumbed to his injuries. His identity is not being released at this time.

    The driver of the Ford, a 45-year-old North Easton man, was transported to an area hospital with minor injuries. The driver of the tractor trailer was not injured, although the vehicle did catch fire.
