■ DRIVER KILLED A woman was killed on the Massachusetts Turnpike in Lee in a single-car crash about 7:45 a.m. Monday, State Police said.

The 53-year-old woman from Medford was pronounced dead at Berkshire Medical Center.
■ WATER SEARCH A police dive team searched the water under the Zakim Bridge Monday afternoon in Boston for Michael Kelleher, who went missing after a Boston Celtics game Wednesday. Divers spent hours looking for evidence of Kelleher using sonar, as his family and friends watched from the bridge. No evidence was found, State Police said. The search began just before noon, officials said. “We fervently hope that our search of the river will serve the purpose of ruling out that area and that Mr. Kelleher will be located somewhere unharmed,” State Police said in a statement. Kelleher, 23, went to the Celtics game with a coworker from a Mexican restaurant in Northborough.
■ POLICE CHASE Vermont State Police say alcohol likely was a factor in a car chase that reached speeds of 105 miles per hour before ending in a fiery crash. Police say 33-year-old Trevor Parizo of Alburgh refused to stop for police late Sunday night on Route 78 in Swanton. He’s accused of speeding over the bridge into Alburgh and losing control and crashing into a telephone pole. A Swanton police officer extinguished the fire. Parizo will be charged with grossly negligent operation of a motor vehicle, attempting to elude police, and excessive speed. It was unclear Monday whether he has an attorney.
