The crash happened at about 7:30 p.m. on Central Street near Sullivan Road. Degraan was driving a 1993 Ford Mustang and there were two passengers, a 46-year-old Nashua woman and a 19-year-old male from Manchester.

"The Mustang was approaching a bicyclist in the breakdown lane," Hudson police Lieutenant Tad Dionne said in a statement. "The Ford began to drift to the right and then swerved. It went off the paved road and crashed head-on into a large granite boulder. After striking the boulder, the car began to roll over. The front passenger ... was ejected from the car before the car came to rest on its wheels."

One passenger was hospitalized with injuries that were not considered life-threatening, police said.

"All occupants were not seatbelted or properly restrained," Dionne added.
