Warner Man Accused Of Drunken Driving, Crashing Stolen Subaru Into Rest Area Sign: NH State Police Roundup

CONCORD, NH — A man from Warner was accused of drunken driving and crashing into a highway sign on Saturday morning, according to New Hampshire State Police.

Just before 10 a.m., troopers were sent to the area of Mile Marker 27.4 on Interstate 93 north in Hooksett for a report of a crash. A driver, identified later as Vicente Metrano, 30, of Warner, was accused of driving off the road, crashing into the Hooksett Welcome Center site, rolling, and then crashing into some trees.

“Metrano got out of the Subaru on his own,” a report stated. “He was later transported to a regional hospital for treatment of minor injuries. During the investigation, troopers learned the crashed Subaru had been reported stolen from Nashua.”

Metrano was taken to the hospital and arrested on receiving stolen property and driving under the influence charges.

Anyone with information that may assist the investigation is asked to contact Trooper Alex Peplinski at alex.m.peplinski@dos.nh.gov.

NH DMV Warns Of Scam Text Messages

The New Hampshire Department of Safety’s Division of Motor Vehicles is warning residents about a text message scam that claims recipients must make an immediate payment to resolve an unpaid traffic fine.

The DMV said the messages are fraudulent and should be deleted.

On March 7, the agency learned that text messages were sent to residents across New Hampshire claiming to be an “automatic alert” about “unresolved traffic violations.” The messages say recipients could face enforcement actions if they do not make a payment.

According to the DMV, the messages threaten consequences including suspension of vehicle registration, restrictions on a driver’s license, administrative fees, negative impacts to driving records, and possible civil or credit-related actions.

The messages also include a payment link containing “dmv-nh” in the web address, which the agency said is intended to make the link appear to be an official state website.

The DMV said it does not send text messages requesting payment. The only text messages sent by the agency are appointment reminders.

Anyone with questions about communications from the DMV can contact the agency’s customer service line at 603-227-4000 during regular business hours.Identity theft victims can also file a report with the Federal Trade Commission at IdentityTheft.gov or call 877-438-4338.
