Framingham Realtor Pleads Guilty in Fatal Ambulance Crash

Framingham resident and Realtor Lisa Zemack has pleaded guilty to negligent driving in a 2014 Milford crash, that killed an Upton woman, who was being transported via an ambulance.

Zemack, 62, of 19 Bonvini Drive, was sentenced to two years probation. Her driver’s license was revoked for two years. She also was ordered to complete 100 hours of community service plus attend driver training and road rage classes.

Zemack was originally charged with motor vehicle homicide by negligent operation. The charge of vehicular homicide was dropped by a Worcester County judge in Milford District Court.

Killed in the crash was Karen Scott, 58, of Upton. The ambulance driver was also injured in the crash.

According to Milford Police, Zemack was driving a Mercedes sedan and failed to stop at a stop sign on Green Street, where it meets Route 140, on January, 22, 2014.

The ambulance was heading north on Route 140, from the Blackstone Valley Dialysis Center to Milford Regional Medical Center in Milford. The impact from the crash with the Mercedes caused the ambulance to rollover. It came to rest on a guard rail.

Milford Police published on its Facebook page a portion of surveillance film from a security camera at a store across the street, which had captured the crash.

Scott, lying in a stretcher, went into cardiac arrest and died. She was returning to a nursing center after receiving dialysis. Scott, a resident of Upton for 25 years, had worked as a certified nursing assistant and was a grandmother and mother of two.
