SMITHFIELD, RI – Smithfield police confirmed that one person succumbed to fatal wounds in the head-on collision that took place in the 777th block of Putnam Pike Monday

New details from Turnto10 showed that first responders rushed the victim, a 20-year-old man, from Attleboro to Rhode Island Hospital. He was initially in critical condition but ended up passing away.
