A 25-year-old Kenyan woman died on Monday morning in a grisly road accident in Lowell, Massachusetts, United States.
Grace Kabuti, aka Shiro Maina, was a victim of a rollover crash on Interstate 95 North, in the city of Wakefield, MA.
A statement released by Massachusetts State police on Monday evening said Ms Kabuti was driving a Nissan Altima at 6:39am when she swerved and rolled over in the left lane.
Paramedics and police arrived at the scene soon after the accident, which caused a traffic snarl-up as preliminary investigations were being conducted.
Ms Kabuti was transported to Lahey Hospital and Medical Centre in Burlington, where she was later pronounced dead.

UNDER INVESTIGATION

By the time of filing this report, the cause of the accident remained under investigation.
“We are investigating the real cause of this accident and cannot comment any further right now,” a spokesperson from Danvers Barracks told the Nation by phone on Tuesday morning.
Local media reported that State troopers, Wakefield Police Department, the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office and the Wakefield Fire Department were among the agencies involved in the investigations.
Ms Kabuti moved from Texas to Massachusetts in 2010.
The Kenyan community in Lowell, Massachusetts was shocked upon learning of the death of one of their own.
“She has no relatives here and we are appealing to the Kenyan community to offer any possible support,” Timothy Kihiko, a close friend to the deceased, told Samrack Media.
