State Police troopers tried to stop the car, which made a U-turn at the upper split for I-93/I-293 and headed southbound.

Cabrera was also charged with reckless conduct, aggravated driving while intoxicated, reckless driving, and endangering the welfare of a child. He faces an appearance in Superior Court in June.

Police asked anyone with information about this incident to call 603-223-4381.
