Father and 4-month-old son from North Haven killed in 10-plus car crash in Vermont

ROCKINGHAM, VT (WFSB) – A father and his 4-month-old son died in a crash on I-91 in Rockingham, Vermont.

Vermont State Police identified the victims as Taylor Binnington, 39, and Parry Lake, 4-months-old, from North Haven.

On Saturday at 7:20 p.m., police responded to what they called a 10-plus car crash on I-91.

Two of the vehicles were involved in the fatal crash. Police said the rest were involved in minor crashes and slide-offs due to icy roads and low visibility during a snow squall.

According to authorities, a fuel tanker truck was stopped ahead of the crashes where it was rear-ended by a Hyundai. Police said the Hyundai was unable to stop in time due to icy roads.

They confirmed Binnington, the driver of the Hyundai, was pronounced dead on scene.

The truck driver was not injured.

Binnington’s wife, Evelyn Lake, was seated in the back seat with their two sons.

Evelyn and her 3-year-old were brought to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Police said the other son, Parry, was life-flighted to a hospital where he later died.
