A New Hampshire State Police trooper was injured during a high-speed pursuit after a driver refused to stop for speeding. The pursuit involved multiple locations and dangerous maneuvers before the driver was finally apprehended.

A New Hampshire State Police trooper was injured following a rollover crash during a wild high-speed pursuit late Friday night. The incident started around 11:10 p.m. Friday when a trooper on patrol on Route 101 west in Exeter observed a Toyota Camry driving 131 mph near Exit 11, more than double the posted speed limit of 65 mph. The trooper caught up with the Toyota and activated his emergency lights, but the driver continued at a high rate of speed.

Moments later, the driver of the Toyota took Exit 9, continuing west at a high rate of speed on Epping Road in Exeter. While continuing to pursue the vehicle, the trooper was involved in a rollover crash near the intersection of Epping Road and Old Town Farm Road. Other troopers, along with members of the Exeter police and fire departments, responded to the crash scene to assist the trooper while additional troopers searched the area for the Toyota. Around 11:25 p.m. troopers located the Toyota on Middle Road in Brentwood, but the driver again failed to stop and the pursuit continued. As the Toyota turned onto Deer Hill Road, troopers were able to successfully deploy tire deflation devices. Despite this, the driver continued back onto Route 101 westbound. In the area of Exit 7, the driver of the Toyota made a U-turn and began driving eastbound in the westbound lanes, directly toward the pursuing troopers. As troopers approached and tried to stop the driver from continuing the wrong way into oncoming traffic, the Toyota again reversed direction and continued westbound. Near Exit 6, the driver lost control of the Toyota and went off the right shoulder before rolling over into the woods alongside the road. Troopers surrounded the Toyota and made contact with the driver, ultimately breaking a window and ordering the driver to get out. The driver complied and was taken into custody. The driver of the Toyota has been identified by police as 56-year-old Michael P. Holt, of Brentwoo
