Newmarket Motorcyclist Dies In Route 101 Crash: New Hampshire State Police Roundup

CONCORD, NH — A man from Newmarket died after a motorcycle crash on Route 101 in Candia on Saturday night.

Around 6:30 p.m., New Hampshire State Police were sent to a crash on the eastbound side of the highway. When troopers and EMTs arrived, they found a man on the road and a 2004 Harley-Davidson motorcycle.

Ralph Cummings, 44, of Newmarket was pronounced dead at the scene.

“The preliminary investigation determined that the adult male motorcycle operator had been traveling at a high rate of speed in an easterly direction along Route 101,” Tyler Dumont, the public information officer for state police, said. “Witnesses reported Cummings lost control of the motorcycle in a fishtailing fashion, then crashed within the travel lanes of the road.”

Cummings also was not wearing a helmet. There were no passengers or other vehicles involved in the crash.

Multiple agencies assisted Troop A Troopers, including the Candia Police Department, the Raymond Police Department, Candia Fire and Rescue, the Auburn Fire Department and Precision Towing & Recovery.

Teen Accused Of Wrong Way Driving On Route 101

A teen from Vermont has not been charged after a two-vehicle crash on Friday in Candia.

Around 2:30 p.m., state police were sent to the westbound side of the highway for a crash between a Subaru Impreza, driven by Michael Mallet, 18, of Calais, Vermont, and a Chevrolet pickup towing a trailer. Mallet was accused of wrong-way driving and then changing lanes and crashing into the truck. The truck flipped, and both vehicles stopped in the median.

A 24-year-old Londonderry man was injured during the crash with a head injury and taken to Elliot Hospital. A juvenile passenger in the Subaru was not harmed.

The highway was closed for around 90 minutes, Dumont said. State police were assisted by Auburn and Candia police, Auburn and Candia fire and rescue and the Rockingham County Sheriff’s Office.

State police believe there were additional witnesses to this crash and asked anyone who hasn’t yet spoken with investigators to contact Trooper Chris Houston at Christopher.E.Houston@dos.nh.gov or through State Police dispatch at 603-223-4381.
