BOSTON, August 17, 2016—State Police detectives assigned to the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office are continuing to investigate a single vehicle crash in West Roxbury that claimed the life of the driver, a 44-year-old Dedham man, District Attorney Daniel F. Conley said.

A preliminary investigation indicates that the man was operating a 2000 Chevrolet S-10 pickup truck with one passenger in the area of Enneking Parkway when the vehicle lost control during a turn and left the roadway yesterday evening.  The driver suffered fatal injuries and died at the scene.  The passenger, a 46-year-old Roslindale man, was transported to Brigham and Women’s Hospital with significant injuries.

Investigators are looking into the possibility that weather-related road conditions contributed to the crash.

The investigation into the crash is ongoing.  The State Police Crime Scene Services Section, Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section, and other MSP units responded, as did the Boston Fire Department and Boston EMS.

State Police are leading the investigation because Enneking Parkway is a state roadway within the Department of Conservation and Recreation’s Stony Brook Reservation.
