“The vehicle involved was located off to the right-hand side of the road on its side causing severe damage to a telephone pole and wires,” according to Lt. John Hennessey of Troop A. “The vehicle was described as a 2014 Chevy box truck.”

Centore was transported to Exeter Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, he noted.

“(The) on scene investigation showed Centore left the travel portion of the roadway and struck at telephone pole, breaking it in half,” Hennessey alleged. “The vehicle then rolled onto its side. The cause of this crash remains under investigation. However, driver impairment is believed to be a contributing factor.”

Centore was later arrested. He’s due in Brentwood District Court on July 26.

The New Hampshire State Police were assisted at the scene by Seabrook Police Department, Kensington Fire Department, NH Department of Transportation, Al’s Automotive, and Unitil Electric Company.
