RICHMOND, R.I. (WHDH) - Rhode Island state police have identified the driver killed in a single-vehicle crash in Richmond on Saturday morning, officials said.
Troopers responding to a single-vehicle crash on Route 3 around 3 a.m. pronounced 30-year-old Kyle Lamphere, of Ashaway, dead at the scene, according to state police.
A preliminary investigation indicates Lamphere was driving along Route 3 when he lost control of his Hyundai sedan, causing it to mount an embankment, enter the wood line, and struck a tree. The collision caused the Hyundai to roll over and come to rest partially in the first lane of Route 95 north, police said.
Lamphere, who had not been wearing his seatbelt, was ejected from the vehicle during the crash.
No additional information was immediately available.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
