2 Die, 1 Injured During I-95 Crash: New Hampshire State Police Roundup

CONCORD, NH — Two people died, and another was injured during a crash on Interstate 95 in Greenland on Wednesday.

Around 1:15 p.m., troopers were sent to a two-vehicle crash near Mile Marker 9.2. An investigation found the driver of a 2023 Toyota Camry, Steve Le, 24, of Methuen, Massachusetts, was driving north when they lost control of the car, crossed the median into the southbound lane, and collided with a 2019 Ford Econoline van. The van was being driven by Leslie Lynn, 58, of Roanoke, Virginia.

After being struck, the van crossed the median from the southbound lane to the northbound lane and stopped at a wood line.

Both drivers were pronounced dead at the scene.

A passenger in the van was taken to the hospital with serious injuries.

The highway was closed for several hours during the investigation and cleanup. Greenland and Portsmouth police, Greenland firefighters, the NH DOT, and the New England Truck Center assisted troopers.

Anyone who witnessed the crash or has information that may assist the investigation was asked to contact Trooper Brian Hanna at Brian.D.Hanna@dos.nh.gov.

Teen Arrested On Gun Storage, Other Charges

A Bedford teenager with an active revocation case was arraigned last week on more driving charges as well as a gun storage charge.

Rayyan Ahmed, 19, of Bedford, was arraigned on Oct. 15 on reckless operation, breach of bail, driving after revocation or suspension, transport of alcohol by a minor, and negligent storage of a firearm charges after an incident in late September in Bedford.

According to court documents, Ahmed was driving on the Everett Turnpike north onto Route 101 east in Bedford when a trooper stopped him. The trooper accused him of driving recklessly, with a license suspended in June, having liquor in the backseat, violating his bail, and having a gun in the backseat of the vehicle where a child could gain access to it.

Ahmed, according to court docs, was arrested by Bedford police on July 19 on operating after suspension, accused of driving on Route 101 in an unregistered vehicle and failing to stop for police. He is scheduled to be arraigned on those charges in court Tuesday.
