David Lamond, 55, of Fall River is facing charges of driving while intoxicated (DWI) in connection with a multi-vehicle accident in Bedford, NH nearly two weeks ago. The Bedford Journal reports that Lamond struck two other cars with his Jeep Liberty around 8:00pm on Friday, April 29, by the intersection of Route 101 and Route 114. The vehicles that were hit were a Hyundai Elantra and a Honda Odyssey, the drivers of which have not been identified.
Officials responding to the accident site reported that Lamond emitted a smell of alcohol and eventually determined that he was driving drunk behind the wheel. None of the drivers or passengers involved in the crash were reportedly injured. Lamond was released on $1,000 bail and is set to return to Merrimack District Court towards the end of May.
