Tragedy Strikes on I-95: Authorities Seek Public’s Help in Identifying Vehicle Involved in Fatal Foxboro Shooting
In a shocking incident that has left the community of Foxboro in disbelief, authorities are seeking the public’s assistance in identifying a vehicle involved in a deadly highway shooting. The incident occurred on the evening of February 3, 2024, on I-95 southbound, and has left one man dead and several others shaken.
The Massachusetts State Police assigned to the Norfolk District Attorney’s Office are urging anyone with information regarding the owner or location of a gray, silver, or dark-colored sedan to come forward. The vehicle in question, possibly a Hyundai Sonata with cosmetic modifications, was captured in images obtained from a civilian dashboard camera. These images were shared with the State Police in hopes of finding leads that could help solve this heinous crime.
The incident unfolded just before 10 p.m. on that fateful night when the driver or an occupant of the suspect vehicle allegedly fired multiple shots into a black Mercedes being driven by Justin R. Parker, a 37-year-old resident of North Attleboro. The motive behind the shooting remains unknown at this time. As a result of the gunfire, Parker’s car veered into a Lexus SUV carrying a family, causing it to crash off the road. Miraculously, all occupants of the Lexus survived this horrifying ordeal.
After colliding with the SUV, Parker’s vehicle careened into the center guard rail before finally coming to rest on the highway just south of Exit 17. Despite immediate medical attention and transportation to Sturdy Memorial Hospital, Parker succumbed to his gunshot injuries.
