FOXBOROUGH — A fatal highway shooting on Rte. 95 South last night has prompted a search for a suspect vehicle, according to Norfolk District Attorney Michael W. Morrissey.
Authorities are looking for a dark-colored or possibly black sedan involved in the incident that occurred just before 10 p.m. on Feb. 3.
The sedan’s driver is accused of firing multiple rounds into a black Mercedes, resulting in the death of its driver.
After being shot, the Mercedes reportedly swerved into a Lexus SUV carrying a family, forcing the vehicle off the road and into the surrounding woods.
The Mercedes then collided with the center guard rail and came to a stop on the highway.
The family in the Lexus did not sustain life-threatening injuries.
The victim, identified as Justin R. Parker, 37, of North Attleborough, Mass., was taken to Sturdy Memorial Hospital but succumbed to his injuries.
“We are asking anyone who may have seen any part of this incident, or who may have seen one or more dark-colored sedans operating erratically or at a high rate of speed on Rte. 95 before or after the area of Exit 17 to call 781-327-9801 and speak with State Police assigned to the Norfolk District Attorney’s Office,” Morrissey stated.
