Man Perishes in Everett Turnpike Crash

BEDFORD, NH - New Hampshire State Police have announced that a man has died after injuries sustained in a rollover in Bedford on April 12, 2016, according to a report.

John Borrun, 47, of Litchfield, succumbed to injuries received in the accident at Elliot Hospital in Manchester after being transported after the crash.

According to state police, Borrun was driving a Chevrolet Avalanche southbound on the Everett Turnpike when it took the Exit 13 off-ramp, rolled over, and crashed. Witnesses said the vehicle was “traveling at a high rate of speed and reported the vehicle to be weaving around slower traffic as it proceeded onto the exit thirteen southbound off ramp,” according to Staff Sgt.

“The witnesses stated that the vehicle subsequently lost control, driving off the left side of the roadway where it began to roll over, ejecting both vehicle occupants,” Trask noted.

When troopers arrived on scene, good Samaritans were assisting a severely injured adult female – a 22-year-old woman from Auburn, who was the passenger – and Borrun, who was described as “severely injured.”
