Fitzwilliam, NH (March 13, 2025) – A serious crash involving a single vehicle left at least one person with significant injuries on Wednesday afternoon, prompting an emergency response that included air medical transport.
According to authorities, the accident occurred around 1:45 p.m. near 549 Route 12. A vehicle reportedly struck a utility pole and overturned, leaving the driver or occupant trapped inside. Emergency responders worked quickly to extricate the individual from the wreckage, and due to the severity of the injuries, a DHART (Dartmouth-Hitchcock Advanced Response Team) helicopter was requested to transport the victim to a trauma center.
Eversource was also dispatched to the scene to address damage to the utility pole and assess any potential power line hazards. Local law enforcement temporarily closed Route 12 while crews worked to clear the area and investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash.
Officials have not yet released further details about the condition of the injured party or the cause of the accident. The investigation remains ongoing.
Our thoughts are with those involved in this crash, and we wish the injured individual a full recovery.
Rollover Accidents in New Hampshire
Rollover crashes are among the most severe types of motor vehicle accidents, often resulting in life-threatening injuries. When a vehicle strikes a fixed object, such as a utility pole, the force of impact can significantly increase the risk of serious trauma. High-speed travel, road conditions, and driver reaction times all play a role in these types of incidents.
In accidents where entrapment occurs, immediate medical intervention is critical. Emergency responders in New Hampshire, including DHART and local rescue teams, are trained to handle these high-risk situations, ensuring that victims receive the fastest possible medical care.
For those injured in rollover crashes, seeking medical attention is only the first step. Understanding legal options and available resources is equally important, especially if negligence or road conditions played a role in the accident. Injured individuals may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
