BOSTON -- State Police said they arrested and charged a Springfield, Mass., man with attempted murder and assault Wednesday for allegedly running his BMW off the road on purpose during a fight with a female passenger.
Troopers said they responded to a report of an single-car accident about 8:45 p.m. on Route 90 westbound, west of interchange 7, in Ludlow.
Officers said their investigation showed that Harold D. Palmer, 64, of Springfield, was operating a 2000 BMW 323I on Route 90 West when he became involved in an altercation with his adult female passenger.
At some point, troopers alleged, Palmer purposely drove the BMW off the right shoulder of the roadway and into the wood-line striking several trees.
Both Palmer and the adult female passenger were wearing safetybelts at the time of the crash and were uninjured in the crash.
Palmer was arrested and taken to the State Police Barracks in Charlton were he was booked for attempted murder, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon (a car), domestic assault and battery, operating to endanger and a lanes violation.
Palmer was scheduled for arraignment Thursday in Palmer District Court.
This crash remains under investigation.
This is a very stupid thing to do. Your not only endangering your life along with the person hes trying to kill but other people. Palmer should go too jail and if hes let out he should never drive again. At least the female passenger was wearing a safty belt and was not harmed during Palmers litttle stunt.
