At approximately 11:20 p.m. Massachusetts State Troopers responded to a crash involving a personal vehicle and a tractor-trailer on Route 495 in Andover that resulted in a fatality.
Preliminary investigation suggests that an adult male was operating a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette southbound when he lost control of his car, struck another vehicle, and then went under the trailer portion of a tractor-trailer that was also southbound.
The operator was determined to be deceased at the scene. His name, age, and city or town of residence is not being released at this time while we make next-of-kin notifications.
No other motorists were injured.
The facts and circumstances of the crash are under investigation by the State Police-Andover Barracks, Troop A, the State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section, the State Police Crime Scene Services Section, and the State Police Detective Unit for Essex County.
