A 20-year-old was killed in a one-car crash on I-91 in Middletown late Sunday, state police said.
The crash happened shortly before midnight near the Exit 20 on-ramp, they said. Victor Ioanid Moraru of Ann Street in Meriden was pronounced dead at the scene.
According to police, Moraru had been driving a 1998 Honda Accord LX north in the right lane, south of Exit 20, when he lost control. The car went to the right, off the road, and traveled into a wooded area where it struck a tree. Troopers said they don’t know why he lost control of the car.
