HOOKSETT, N.H. — A New Hampshire man is facing reckless driving charges for allegedly speeding down the highway at over 100mph before crashing Wednesday morning.
Jason Marcoux, 48, of Manchester, is charged with 10 counts of felony reckless conduct with a deadly weapon (car), as well as charges of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, disobeying an officer, driving after suspension for DUI and reckless driving.
According to New Hampshire State Police, a trooper was conducting a commercial vehicle inspection on I-93 northbound in Hooksett around 10 a.m. when the driver of a blue 2013 Dodge Dart, later identified as Marcoux, pulled over, exited the vehicle and began shouting erratically.
The trooper then tried approaching him but Marcoux reportedly ran back to the car and sped off.
Shortly thereafter, the Dodge was allegedly seen travelling more than 100mph in the high-speed breakdown lane of I-93 northbound in Bow.
A trooper tried pulling him over, but according to police, Marcoux showed no indications of slowing down and continued driving through I-93 in Concord, endangering other vehicles.
Officials say Marcoux lost control of the Dodge at a rotary and drove off the road before hitting a snowbank. He was then apprehended by K-9 Ragnar.
Marcoux will appear in court at a later date.
