Overview
- A New Hampshire State Police trooper recorded a 21-year-old motorcyclist traveling 139 miles per hour in a 50 mph zone on West Swanzey Road and took him into custody.
- The rider was identified by police as Jonathan Hutchins and was charged with reckless driving based on the speed recorded by the trooper.
- Officers processed Hutchins and released him on personal recognizance bail, which means he was freed without posting money but must return for court.
- Hutchins is scheduled to appear in a New Hampshire court in July to face the reckless driving charge and any related proceedings.
- The episode underscores the large gap between the posted speed limit and the speed recorded, a fact police cited in announcing the arrest and charge.
