A 69-year-old man died from his injuries following a car crash on I-95 in Attleboro on Sunday, officials said.
Attleboro firefighters responded to a single-vehicle crash report at 7:25 p.m. and found the car flipped on its side in the woods next to the highway, according to a statement from the Attleboro Fire Department.
Among the wreckage, first responders said they found an unconscious man, identified as James Hobbs of Dorchester, in a Toyota Corolla that had struck a tree, according to the Bristol County District Attorney’s office.
