Tewksbury Woman Dies in Wilmington Two-Car Accident
Posted on Feb 25, 2010
February 25, 2010 - Wilmington, Mass. - A Tewksbury woman died early Tuesday morning when her vehicle was struck by another car while she was stopped on Route 93.
According to WickedLoca Monique Forster, 22, of Tewksbury, was driving north on Route 93 at about 1:17 a.m. when she suddenly hit a guardrail and came to a stop on the highway. Her car was then struck by a 2006 Honda Accord. Forster suffered fatal injuries in the highway accident and was pronounced dead at Lahey Clinic in Burlington.
Authorities have not yet determined why Forster lost control of the car. The driver of the Accord, Miguel Ortiz-Calderon, 35, of North Andover, suffered serious personal injuries and was transported to a nearby hospital.
Police were forced to close the left 2 lanes of Route 93 for about 2 hours after the car accident. The Wilmington highway accident remains under investigation.
