Elderly Driver From Portsmouth Killed During Crash On Route 16: New Hampshire State Police Roundup

CONCORD, NH — An elderly Seacoast driver died during a crash in Milton early Friday morning, according to New Hampshire State Police.

Around 4:30 a.m., state police dispatch received a report of a driver traveling north in the southbound lane of Route 16. A few minutes later, troopers were sent to the area of Mile Marker 32.24 on Route 16 for a report of a crash involving a 2017 Volkswagen Jetta and a 2024 Nissan Kicks. The vehicles were found in opposing breakdown lanes, with heavy damage.

The preliminary investigation determined that Edward Correia, 77, of Portsmouth, had been traveling in the Volkswagen, northbound in the southbound lane of travel, when he collided with the southbound Nissan, driven by Jeremiah Coleman, 67, of West Ossipee,” state police said. “This section of highway has no physical barriers separating the opposing lanes, and the cause for Correia’s traveling to the left of the centerlines remains under investigation.”

Correia, state police believed, was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Coleman was taken to the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

The highway, between Exits 17 and 18, was closed for around three hours during the investigation and cleanup.

Troopers were assisted by members of the Milton police and fire departments, Farmington Police Department, Wakefield police and fire departments, and the New Hampshire Department of Transportation.

Anyone with information was asked to contact Trooper Shane McClure at shane.m.mcclure@dos.nh.gov.

During the effort, 27 citations were also issued. Those arrested included:

Emily E. McCredy, 35, of Amesbury, Massachusetts, on driving under the influence.

Johnny Marin Cedeno, 28, of Manchester, on driving under the influence.

Vitor Peixoto, 41, of Hudson, Massachusetts, on license required and operating without a valid license.

Chelsea E. Reed, 39, of Warren, Maine, was arrested on possession of controlled drugs and transporting alcoholic beverages (open container).

The effort was funded by the New Hampshire Office of Highway Safety and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
