MERRIMACK, NH — A local woman is scheduled to be in court next month after allegedly fleeing the scene of a local crash, according to police. Sapphire Barrows, 22, of Greenfield Drive in Merrimack, was arrested on April 1, 2017, for conduct after an accident.

At about 10:15 a.m. on Feb. 26, police were sent to a local home for a report of a mailbox being struck and damaged the night before, according to Sgt. Kenneth MacLeod of the Merrimack Police Department.

“Upon arrival, the officer noticed that there were car parts at the scene and that the property damage was a result of a motor vehicle accident,” MacLeod stated. “Upon further investigation by the officer, a motor vehicle was located in the area that had damage that matched the car parts located at the scene.”

The investigating officer reportedly identified Barrows as the operator of the vehicle, according to a report. A warrant was issued for her arrest and she was arrested earlier this month.

Barrows was released on personal recognizance bail and is due in court on May 4.

According to reports on Patch, Barrows was arrested last summer on domestic violence and criminal threatening after an alleged incident on Summit Road. In October 2012, in Concord, she received a summons for unlawful possession after an alleged incident in an apartment on Fisherville Road in that city.
