GORHAM — Police say excessive speed contributed to a fiery crash
that killed Jason Fowler, 31, of Scarborough.  Fowler was
driving a Buick Regal near 165 Burnham Road at 2:30 a.m. when he
lost control on a curve, said Sgt. Dan Young. Fowler was thrown
from the car, which crashed into several trees and burst into
flames, he said.  Fowler was pronounced dead at the scene.
Fowler lived nearby and police have not yet determined where he
came from or his destination. Police are investigating whether
alcohol played a role in the crash and the state medical
examiner is performing tests to determine that, Young said.
