Man Faces Alleged DUI Charges Following ATV Crash in New Hampshire

New Hampshire Fish and Game Department says the Massachusetts man was seriously injured when his ATV rolled over in the town of Hill

A Massachusetts man who was seriously injured in an all-terrain vehicle crash in New Hampshire has been charged with driving while intoxicated.

The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department says 48-year-old Paul McBride of Yarmouth Port, Massachusetts, rolled over while trying to turn into a driveway in the town of Hill on Saturday night. Authorities say alcohol and speed were contributing factors in the crash.

McBride, who was not wearing a helmet, was taken to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. He was charged with driving an off-road vehicle while intoxicated, which carries the same potential penalties as driving a car under the influence of alcohol.

A phone number for McBride could not be found Sunday.
