CONCORD, NH — Concord police and fire and rescue teams were sent to a single-vehicle accident on Saturday.

Around 8 p.m., a witness in the area of Long Pond Road and Hopkinton Road called the police after a Mazda sedan crashed into a security gate at the entrance of a dirt road onto St. Paul’s School property, specifically, a conservation area on the school compound.
