Salem Police Charge Area Man with DUI Following Rollover Crash

SALEM — Deputy Chief Joel Dolan reports that the Salem Police Department has charged an area man for driving while intoxicated following a rollover crash near the Mall at Rockingham Park.

The driver of the vehicle, EVAN ANAYA, 27, OF MANCHESTER, has been charged by Salem Police with Aggravated Driving While Intoxicated.

On Sunday, Dec. 1, police responded at approximately 12:46 p.m. to Mall Road at the intersection of the Rockingham Park Boulevard flyover exit for multiple reports of a rollover crash. The vehicle caught fire following the crash, and witnesses on scene were able to extinguish the flames prior to police arrival.

Upon arrival, Officer Jeffrey LaRosa found that there had been a crash involving one vehicle, a Saab, and was able to free ANAYA and a passenger from the car.

ANAYA and the passenger both sustained serious injuries that are not believed to be life threatening. ANAYA was transported to Parkland Medical Center by ambulance, and was later taken to Portsmouth Regional Hospital. The passenger was transported by ambulance to Lawrence General Hospital.

The vehicle sustained significant damage from the crash, and Mall Road was closed for approximately 15 minutes on Sunday while emergency crews responded.

These are allegations. All suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty.

Bedford, N.H. Police Arrest Woman Following String of Recent Motor Vehicle Break-Ins

Woman Arrested Allegedly Member of Felony Lane Gang

BEDFORD, N.H. — Chief John J. Bryfonski reports that the Bedford Police Department has charged a woman following a series of recent motor vehicle break-ins and identity theft cases in town.

Several incidents took place in Bedford in October and the subsequent investigations resulted in the arrest of TINA CANNON, AGE 47, OF NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE.

CANNON was charged with:

  • Identity Fraud
  • Posing as Another Person
  • Criminal Mischief
  • Theft by Unauthorized Taking or Transfer

CANNON was arrested on Tuesday, Nov. 5 by Bedford Police, in Keene, New Hampshire. She was arraigned on Wednesday, Nov. 13 at Hillsborough County Superior Court North in Manchester, and was released on personal recognizance.

On Monday, Oct. 14, a vehicle was broken into in the parking lot of Orangetheory Fitness on South River Road. A purse with two credit cards inside was stolen, and one of the cards was later used at two different Lowe’s, in Woburn, Massachusetts and in Salem, New Hampshire.

Three other incidents took place on Saturday, Oct. 12, starting with multiple vehicle break-ins on Camp Allen Road. Three vehicles had their windows broken and purses were taken from each of the vehicles.

Later that day, officers responded to a theft from a vehicle in the parking lot of the Bedford Mall, where a window was smashed and numerous bottles of wine were taken.

Hours later, Bedford Police officers responded to the River Road Tavern, 193 South River Road, where another vehicle window was smashed and a purse was taken.

Through the subsequent investigations, and with assistance from the Keene Police Department, Bedford officers were able to link CANNON to the thefts.

CANNON is allegedly a member of the Felony Lane Gang, a group of individuals who operate across the country allegedly breaking into cars to steal purses. The gang members use the IDs from the purses they steal to cash checks and engage in other identity theft activities.

The Felony Lane Gang is said to be based out of Florida, with arrests having been made last month in states as far away as Tennessee, Louisiana, Georgia and Wisconsin. 

“These are well organized criminals involved in a nationwide theft operation, and making this arrest required the cooperation from multiple departments,” Chief Bryfonski said. “This investigation took place over several months, and I would like to thank several local businesses for providing security footage that helped us link the suspect to these crimes.”

The incidents remain under investigation. Anyone with information about similar vehicle break-ins or identity theft incidents is asked to contact the Bedford Police Department at 603-472-5113.

These are allegations. Are suspects are innocent until proven guilty.

Groveland Police Charge Juvenile in Connection with Motor Vehicle Break-In

GROVELAND — Chief Jeffrey Gillen reports that the Groveland Police Department has arrested a teenager and charged him after he allegedly broke into multiple motor vehicles on Wednesday.

At approximately 9:21 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 20, police responded to a report of two males on Ashcroft Circle who had arrived in a suspicious vehicle and were walking into driveways and checking vehicle door handles.

After an initial investigation, police learned that the vehicle the two suspects had arrived in was stolen. Upon arrival, the two suspects ran away from police on foot.

Police were able to locate one of the two teens, a MALE, AGE 17, OF HAVERHILL, and charged him with Receiving Stolen Property and Breaking and Entering into a Motor Vehicle. 

Police have identified five individuals they believe were victims of the break-ins. All vehicles that were entered were determined to have been unlocked at the time.

“Fortunately, someone saw this suspicious behavior and called us in time to respond and identify one of these individuals,” Chief Gillen said. “We encourage residents to give us a call if they see something questionable, and to always lock their car doors. Also, I want to thank the Georgetown Police Department and Amesbury Police Officer Thomas Nichols and his K-9 for their assistance at the scene.”

Groveland Police are still seeking to identify the second individual involved, and anyone with any information regarding this incident is encouraged to call the Groveland Police Department at 978-521-1212.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Groveland Police remind vehicle owners to use common sense when parking and exiting your vehicle.

  • Take your key, don’t leave it in your vehicle.
  • Close all windows and lock all doors.
  • Never leave valuables in your vehicle, and if you do, make sure they are out of sight.
  • Never leave credit cards/debit cards, cash or your wallet or purse inside of your vehicle overnight.
  • Park in well-lit areas or preferably inside a garage, if possible. Install lights with motion sensors near where you park your vehicle.
  • Get in the routine of double-checking that your vehicle is locked and secure each night around 9 p.m. This is known as the 9 p.m. Routine.

If your vehicle has been stolen or broken into, follow these steps:

  • Call 911 to report a vehicle theft or break-in.  A copy of the police report and/or a case number will be needed to provide to your insurance company.
  • You may be asked to provide the license plate number, make, model and color of the car, the VIN number and any identifying characteristics.
  • Contact your insurance company to file a claim within 24 hours of when you discovered your vehicle was stolen or broken into.
  • If you find your vehicle before authorities, contact the police immediately and then your insurance company.

These are allegations. All suspects are innocent until proven guilty.
