WOBURN, MA : Fatal injuries in a car crash in Woburn on Saturday, November, 25th 2017

A woman from Maine died Saturday after sustaining fatal injuries in a car crash in Woburn, Massachusetts State Police said.

The victim, a 48-year-old woman from Kennebunk, Maine, has not been publicly identified, though police said they expect to release her identity Sunday.

Police were called to Route 93 near Exit 37A in Woburn around 5:10 p.m. after receiving reports of a crash in the highway's northbound lane, police said.

Investigation led police to understand that a 2009 Honda Fit, the car driven by the Maine woman, had crashed into a GMC Yukon from behind. The impact from the collision caused the Yukon to then crash into another car, a Honda Civic.

As a result, the driver of the Honda Fit suffered serious injuries and was taken to Lahey Hospital in Burlington, where she died from her injuries.

Nobody in the Yukon or Honda Civic were injured as a result of the crash.

The three right travel lanes were closed from approximately one hour and were reopened at approximately 6:55 p.m.

The crash is still under investigation by members of the State Police Collision Analysis Reconstruction team and other law enforcement organizations.
