MERRIMACK, NH - A Merrimack man is in court next month after a spat with a tow truck driver who tried to remove his Hummer from a condo complex led to damage to both vehicles, according to police.

Alfred B. Flores, 47, of Templeton Court in Merrimack, was arrested on Dec. 23, 2015, for reckless driving and criminal mischief.

According to police, back on Dec. 8, 2015, Flores’ 2008 Hummer H2 was put on the back of a tow truck to be removed from the area.

“Mr. Flores did take exception to his vehicle being towed and jumped into the driver’s seat,” according to Sgt. Ted Dillon of the Merrimack Police Department. “He started the vehicle and drove it off the tow truck, which caused damage to both his vehicle as well as the 2015 Dodge Ram 4500 tow truck.”

A warrant was issued for his arrest and Flores was charged about two weeks later. He was later released on personal recognizance bail and will be in court on Feb. 4.
