Pelham Man Faces Charges Linked to Boat Crash on Lake Winnipesaukee

A Pelham man is facing charges for his alleged connection to August’s hit-and-run boat crash on Lake Winnipesaukee.

State officials say the 69-year-old suspect, who has not been publicly identified, had run a 50-foot SeaRay boat up on some rocks in Winter Harbor after hitting a dock and another vessel at speed hours after dark on August 12th.

He and some passengers reportedly then fled the scene in another boat.

No injuries were reported.

Officials say the suspect will answer to charges in early June.
