Concord Man Arrested On Another DUI Charge After An Accident

CONCORD, NH — Concord fire and rescue teams and police were sent to Jensen’s manufactured home park for a crash with wires down in the street on Wednesday.

Around 8:30 p.m., police received a call about an SUV with Florida plates that had struck some mailboxes, a utility pole, and almost hit a man walking a dog. Dispatch sent police and reported hearing people screaming in the background. Other callers accused the driver of screaming at residents, dispatch said.

Arriving firefighters requested Unitil to be contacted due to a guard wire attached to a pole being damaged with wires down.

Dispatch, after running a check on the plate, said the vehicle was owned by Everett Lages of Port Charlotte, Florida. Another officer mentioned he was arrested a few months ago on a drunken-driving charge.

Dispatch also told officers they had received a call from a family member reporting Lages had left their home and was heavily intoxicated, according to scanner chatter.

Lages, 57, after a quick field sobriety test, was arrested on a driving under the influence charge.

Lages, according to a post on Patch was arrested on Oct. 31, 2021, on Manchester Street.
