Massachusetts Man Accused Of Fleeing From State Troopers: New Hampshire State Police Roundup

CONCORD, NH — A Massachusetts man is facing multiple charges after a traffic stop in Greenland Thursday turned into a chase on Interstate 95 and ended in Dover, according to New Hampshire State Police.

Around 1:30 a.m., troopers stopped Steven M. Jones, 47, of Methuen, Massachusetts, who was accused of driving 108 mph on I-95 northbound in a 2018 Hyundai Elantra. He initially stopped but was uncooperative and refused to produce a driver’s license, troopers said. After a brief interaction, the driver sped away, and a chase began, state police said.

Jones was accused of driving north on I-95 and onto the Spaulding Turnpike before exiting onto Central Avenue in Dover. He then stopped in the parking lot of a private business, a report said. Troopers accused Jones of refusing to comply and of not getting out of the vehicle.

Additional troopers responded and surrounded the car.

Troopers made several attempts to negotiate with the driver, who remained non-compliant, leading to state police deploying nonlethal munitions, a report said. Jones was accused of exiting the car but still refused to cooperate. A K-9 was deployed before troopers took the driver into custody.

Jones was taken to an area hospital for evaluation and then transported to the Strafford County Jail, where he was held in preventive detention pending his arraignment in the Portsmouth and Dover District Courts. He was charged with felony counts of reckless conduct with a deadly weapon, convicted felon, and armed career criminal, as well as misdemeanor counts of disobeying an officer, resisting arrest, aggravated driving while intoxicated, DWI subsequent offense, criminal mischief, attempted criminal mischief, attempted simple assault, operating after suspension, and obstructing government administration, along with a violation-level offense of reckless operation.

State troopers were assisted by members of the Dover police and fire departments. Anyone with information about the ongoing investigation is asked to contact Trooper Patrick Vetter at Patrick.R.Vetter@dos.nh.gov.

Dalton Man Charged With Stealing Fire Vehicle, Burglary, Other Charges

A North Country man was arrested last month, accused of stealing a fire vehicle after first responders were called to his burning home.

Around 3:45 a.m. on Aug. 25, troopers were sent to Dalton to assist with a house fire call. While doing so, they learned the owner of the burning home, Nestor Roman II, 30, of Dalton, had stolen a Whitefield Fire and Rescue vehicle, according to state police. He then drove the stolen vehicle away from the scene on Faraway Road, a report said.

“Further investigation determined that while driving the stolen rescue vehicle,” state police said, “Roman struck another Whitefield Fire & Rescue engine actively engaged in firefighting operations, drove over multiple water supply lines, and narrowly missed three firefighters. Wooden fences at two separate properties were also damaged.”

Later, troopers received a report from a homeowner in Dalton that the stolen rescue vehicle had crashed on their property.

“The caller also reported that the suspect was attempting to take items from the porch of the home,” state police said. “Troopers arrived moments later and located Roman on the porch. He was uncooperative with troopers but was ultimately taken into custody.”

Roman was charged with three counts of reckless conduct with a deadly weapon, obstructing government administration, theft by unauthorized taking, burglary, resisting arrest, and four conduct after an accident charges. He was held at the Coos County Jail and was scheduled to be arraigned in Lancaster District Court on Aug. 26.

Anyone with information that may assist the ongoing investigation is asked to contact Trooper Allan Esty at 603-846-3333 or via email at allan.h.esty@dos.nh.gov.
