Two people who were killed in a single-car crash on Interstate 95 in Stratford Saturday morning have been identified by Connecticut State Police as Brooklyn residents.

According to police, 54-year-old Jeffrey Stein and 43-year-old Jessica Stein were in a 2019 Mazda CX-9 that was traveling northbound on I-95 around 10:15 a.m. near Exit 32, when it suddenly crossed all lanes of traffic, left the roadway, and entered a grassy area near the exit ramp.

The SUV then struck a traffic sign support and a tree before coming to rest.

Stein, who was driving, and Jessica Stein, the sole passenger, suffered fatal injuries and were pronounced dead at the scene, police say.

Multiple agencies responded, including the Stratford Fire Department, Stratford EMS, the Connecticut Department of Transportation, Connecticut State Police, and the State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Squad (C.A.R.S.).

The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
