CONCORD, NH — A man from Londonderry is facing charges after being accused of driving drunk, reckless operation, and crashing a car on Interstate 93 on Saturday.

Around 6 p.m., New Hampshire State Police dispatch began receiving calls about an erratic driver on the northbound side of the highway in Bow. Amber Lagace, a public information officer for the department, said the vehicle “was reported to be having severe lane control issues but took Exit 13 in Concord.” Troopers, she said, could not locate the car despite searching the area.

Just after 6:15 p.m., dispatch began receiving reports of a car matching the description of the vehicle operating erratically on I-93 north in Northfield.

After the crash, the driver, later identified as Jesse Grazewski, 32, of Londonderry, was accused of driving south in the northbound lanes for “a short while,” she said before stopping. After the driver stopped, the car, Lagace said, was “facing the wrong direction in the high-speed lane.”
