From New Hampshire State Police:
On March 8th, 2021 at approximately 10:13 AM, Troopers from the New Hampshire State Police Troop B Barracks along with fire and medical personnel from the Bedford Fire Department responded to the report of a motor vehicle crash at the toll plaza southbound on the F.E. Everett Turnpike in Bedford.
Upon arrival it was determined that a 2006 Jeep Wrangler had lost control and rolled over in the far left lane of the toll plaza.
The operator of the vehicle was identified as 65 year old Richard Cote of Manchester, NH.
As a result of the crash Mr. Cote sustained fatal injuries. A second vehicle was also struck however, the operator did not sustain any injury.
Speed appears to be a factor in this crash, however, all aspects remain under investigation and anyone who may have witnessed it is asked to contact Trooper E. Torrens at Eric.Torrens@dos.nh.gov or at 603- 223-3622.
