The man was near Exit 20 around 11:30 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 13, when a vehicle, possibly a tractor-trailer crashed into him and kept driving, Massachusetts State Police said. Several other vehicles ran over his body after that and did not stop. Though it's unclear if those drivers knew they had hit a person or if they believed it was an animal, officials said.
Paramedics pronounced the man dead at the scene. Police are still investigating the wreck.
State police ask anyone who may have any information or witnessed the crash to investigators at 508-829-8410.
