LONDONDERRY, N.H. — Northbound lanes of Interstate 93 were briefly closed Wednesday afternoon due to a serious crash on the southbound side.
According to New Hampshire State Police, the closure was necessary to facilitate a helicopter landing at the accident scene. A vehicle had crashed in the median, ejecting one occupant who became pinned underneath.
First responders successfully extricated the individual and began administering medical care. Due to the severity of injuries, a medical helicopter was summoned, and the victim was transported to a hospital; the person's condition remains undisclosed.
The incident resulted in the closure of the interstate at mile marker 13.4, which was reopened shortly thereafter.
Authorities are continuing the investigation into the crash.
