MARBLEHEAD — The following is a statement from Marblehead Police Chief Dennis King:
“On behalf of the entire Marblehead Police Department, I would like to offer our sincerest condolences to the family and loved ones of 18-year-old James Galante, of Marblehead, who tragically died this afternoon from his injuries suffered in a motor vehicle crash early this morning.
This will surely have a great impact on our tightknit community and we are working closely with the Marblehead School District to ensure they will be supported in the coming days and weeks.
We ask that the media give the Galante family privacy during this difficult time.”
