Monday, May 11, 201534-year-old Robert Souza was driving a PT Cruiser in the far right lane of I-95 at about 9:00 p.m., when he careened across all of the lanes and entered the median. The vehicle then collided with a tree, overturned, and caught fire. Thanks to the help of a state trooper and some good Samaritans, Souza, his 24-year-old girlfriend Lindsey Clark, and her 5-year-old daughter Savannah Clunan were all pulled from the wreckage, though Souza and Lindsey are in critical condition and Savannah sustained a skull fracture but is expected to survive. Unfortunately, one occupant could not be rescued.
