Police identified the deceased woman following an incident sparked by a one-vehicle crash near a Market Basket grocery store. Police identified the victim as Jean Baptiste, 36, of Chelsea. The incident happened around 7:15 p.m. Friday on Carter Street, near the intersection with 2nd Street. Employees of a nearby agricultural supply company say the female victim was helping a driver learn to drive. Chelsea police said the first officers on the scene immediately came to the aid of a woman on the sidewalk. Authorities said the victim was pronounced dead at the scene. Video from the area showed a Subaru SUV on the sidewalk with the rear of the vehicle lifted into the air. It appears the SUV reversed onto the sidewalk, removing a sign. “I saw her partially under the SUV,” said Reginald Watkins, who was at the scene after the fatal incident. “I don’t understand, you know, what happened.” Specific information about the incident that led to the woman’s death was not immediately available. Police said the driver of the vehicle was cooperating with investigators.
