One Person Killed in Vehicle Rollover in Epping, NH

A single vehicle rollover in the early morning of Tuesday, March 16, left one person dead and sent another to the hospital, according to information released by the New Hampshire State Police Department.

A Chevrolet Silverado, which was westbound on Jenness Road in Epping, leapt over the southern edge of the roadway, rolled multiple times, and hit a number of trees along the way, state police reported.

Casey McNamara, 26, of Fremont, NH, was thrown from the vehicle and suffered fatal injuries. The other person in the vehicle, Ryan Reed, 29, also of Fremont, was taken to Portsmouth Regional Hospital for treatment of injuries that were not considered life-threatening.

State police noted that Jenness Road was closed for about five hours while the New Hampshire State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Unit investigated the crash.

Speed and alcohol were likely factors in the rollover, according to the press release, but the case is still under investigation.
