Authorities have identified the victim of a fatal rollover crash on Interstate 93 in Stoneham as 34-year-old Kayla E. Driscoll of Somerville. The incident occurred on Wednesday morning, and investigators are now searching for an "erratic" driver who was seen in the area at the time of the collision.

According to Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan and the Massachusetts State Police, Driscoll was driving a 2015 Nissan Rogue on the northbound side of the highway when her SUV rolled over around 8:40 a.m. Tragically, she was pronounced dead at the scene.

The investigation has now shifted focus towards identifying the driver of another vehicle that was present in the vicinity of the crash. This unidentified vehicle is believed to be a dark-colored SUV, similar to a Subaru Crosstrek or a Nissan Rogue.

Officials have revealed that the operator of the vehicle in question was driving recklessly at a high rate of speed on the northbound side of the highway in Medford and Stoneham between 8:25 a.m. and 8:40 a.m. They are urging anyone who may have witnessed this vehicle or has any information about it to come forward.

To assist with the investigation, the public is asked to contact Trooper CJ Murgo of the State Police Detective Unit for Middlesex County at 781-897-6609 or the State Police Medford Barracks at 781-396-0100.

Troopers from District Attorney Marian Ryan's office have taken charge of the investigation into the crash, working diligently to determine the cause of the accident and bring justice to the victim.

This devastating incident serves as a reminder of the importance of safe and responsible driving on our roadways. Authorities are continuing to appeal to the public for any information that could aid in identifying the erratic driver and unraveling the circumstances surrounding this tragic rollover crash.
