Two firefighters pulled a woman from a burning car after it crashed into a utility pole in East Kingston, New Hampshire, over the weekend.
East Kingston police said they responded to a report of a crash on Route 107 at the Apple Hill Golf Course near the Kensington line around 3:30 p.m. Saturday.
They said a black 2022 Dodge Challenger driven by Jamaica Johnson, 35, of Epping, was driving north on Route 107, also know as East Road, when it left the road and struck a utility pole, bringing the pole and wires down onto a 2020 Jeep Wrangler that had been driving south on Route 107.
The Dodge Challenger caught fire, and an East Kingston firefighter and an off-duty Chelmsford, Massachusetts, firefighter who witnessed the crash were able to pull Johnson from the burning vehicle to safety.
