He is believed to have been killed after his car was engulfed in flames after it was involved in a crash with a tractor trailer on Route 202 in Branchburg. The Somerset County Prosecutor's Office would only say the victim was a 32-year-old man.

At 5:03 p.m., Branchburg police responded to the crash at Route 202 and Holland Brook Road following a collision between a Peterbilt tractor-trailer and a Ford sedan, Somerset County Prosecutor John McDonald, Chief of County Detectives Meredith McKay, and Branchburg Police Chief Richard Buck said.

The impact caused the Ford to catch fire, authorities said. The driver was pronounced dead at the scene, authorities said.

A GoFundMe has been set up to support his wife, Jeanet. 

"Dylan was a loving husband and son, and his loss has deeply affected everyone who knew and loved him," Andrew Walnoha, who organized the fundraiser wrote.

Funds will go toward helping Jeanet financially in the wake of her loss, while also letting her know she is not alone. As of Friday, Oct. 30, more than $8,500 has been raised.
