New Hampshire Man Charged Following Crash in I-95 Construction Zone

On Wednesday, September 2, 2026, at approximately 1:25 AM, Troopers responded to a single-vehicle crash on I-95 northbound near mile marker 24 in Kennebunk. The crash occurred in an active construction zone.

The initial investigation determined that a gray 2020 Chevrolet 1500 pickup truck, operated by 28-year-old Brandon Perry of Dover, New Hampshire, was traveling at a high rate of speed before striking several traffic cones and a mobile construction sign board. The truck came to rest with the sign board lodged in the front of the vehicle.

Heavy-duty wrecking equipment was needed to remove the sign board from the grill of the truck. Approximately five construction cones were struck during the crash. At the time, construction workers were working approximately 100 yards away conducting bridge repairs. Perry told Troopers the truck had been experiencing mechanical issues prior to the crash.

Investigators determined that speed and the condition of the vehicle were contributing factors. Perry was evaluated at the scene but declined further medical treatment. He was charged with Driving to Endanger.
