A New Hampshire man who was allegedly driving under the influence crashed head-on into a NHDOT pickup truck early Saturday morning.
As the NHDOT truck was driving westbound on Route 4 around 1:30 a.m., a driver coming from the opposite direction crossed the double yellow lines toward the truck, New Hampshire State Police said in a statement. The NHDOT truck could not avoid the collision.
The NHDOT driver was brought to a nearby hospital with minor injuries.
The other driver, identified as 25-year-old Dean Beaudet, was charged with alleged aggravated DUI and DUI subsequence offense, police said. He was also taken to a local hospital with minor injuries.
The collision is still under investigation, and any witnesses are asked to contact Trooper Kenneth McGrath at 603-223-4381 or Kenneth.McGrath@dos.nh.gov
