Massachusetts State Police investigating fatal crash in Holyoke

A crash on Route 91 at the interchange with Route 90 in Holyoke last night resulted in one fatality.

Preliminary investigation by Trooper Ryan Czepiel indicates that at about 7:20 p.m. yesterday, Miguel Soto-Torres, a 38-year-old Holyoke man was traveling on the Interchange 4 from Route 90 to Route 91 Northbound in a 2006 Toyota Scion when, for reasons still under investigation, his vehicle traveled off the left side of the exit. After leaving the roadway the Toyota rolled a number of times and into the tree line. Speed is believed to be a contributing factor.

As a result of that collision, the operator and sole occupant of the Toyota, Miguel Soto-Torres, was determined to be deceased at the scene.

This crash remains under investigation by Troop B with assistance from the State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section and Crime Scene Services Section.

State Police were assisted on scene by West Springfield Fire and EMS.
