A high school football star was identified as the victim of a horrific crash that occurred early Tuesday morning in Mashpee, Massachusetts.
Nolan Barr, 17, did not survive his injuries after the driver of the car he was riding with seven other teens lost control and hit a tree.
The crash left five other teens with injuries and the front side of their SUV completely crumbled on the sidewalk.
No charges have been filed in connection to the deadly crash; A resident of the neighborhood said he heard an “awful bang” and recalled losing his own teen son in a car crash five decades ago.
“Somehow I knew a car hit a tee out in front of my house,” he said.
“I kind of know how the parents are feeling. It’s an awful, awful thing.”
Barr was remembered as a charismatic and talented football player at his school who also worked at a local assisted living facility.
“He was funny, he was a jokester – always happy, always smiling. He was a member of the football team. He was great,” a friend said.
