BOSTON (WBZ NewsRadio) — Brockton Mayor Bill Carpenter has died at the age of 62. The father of six children was found dead on Wednesday, according to city officials.

Carpenter, a long-time Brockton resident and three-term mayor first elected in 2013, was dropping his grandson off at a summer program at the Arnone School Wednesday morning when he suffered a medical emergency in his car, the Plymouth District Attorney’s office said. The mayor was taken to Good Samaritan Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

“Our office sends its sincere condolences on the sudden passing of Mayor Carpenter,” Plymouth DA Tim Cruz said in a release.
