A woman is dead after a three-car crash in Plymouth, Massachusetts, Friday night, according to police, who said that the crash appeared to have been part of a street race.

One driver was hospitalized and is expected to face charges, Massachusetts State Police said. Another driver suspected to have been involved turned himself in on Saturday, according to the Plymouth County District Attorney's Office.

The crash took place on Route 3 about 10:30 p.m., police said. When officers arrived, they found a woman who had been ejected from a Jeep Grand Cherokee and was transported to a Boston hospital, where she was later pronounced dead.

The driver of the Jeep, identified as 30-year-old Anthony Bradley, of Plymouth, was also taken to a Boston Hospital, according to police.

Witnesses told investigators that Bradley was racing another vehicle before striking a Mini Cooper and rolling over, then striking another car, police said.

The third car involved in the accident fled the scene, according to authorities. Police said they were looking for a Dodge with significant front-end damage.

While the DA said Saturday afternoon that the driver turned himself in, they didn't identify him or say if he was expected to face charges. NBC10 Boston has reached out for more information.

Bradley is expected to face charges including motor vehicle homicide by reckless operation, negligent operation, breakdown lane violation and speeding. He is expected to be arraigned at Plymouth District Court; it wasn't immediately clear if he had an attorney who could speak to his arrest.

The crash remained under investigation Saturday.
