Overview
- Eugene Mirman, identified by New Hampshire State Police, crashed his 2026 Lucid Gravity into the Bedford Toll Plaza on the F.E. Everett Turnpike Tuesday, and the electric SUV caught fire.
- A veteran trooper on Gov. Kelly Ayotte’s security detail pulled him out through a window, and Ayotte and bystanders helped at the scene in what officials called heroic action.
- Mirman was taken by ambulance with serious injuries, and his representative says he is on the mend and has asked for privacy during his recovery.
- Newly shared video and 911 dispatch audio show the car engulfed in flames and the chaotic moments after the rescue as firefighters worked to control the blaze.
- State police say the crash remains under investigation with no charges filed, and local officials note the toll’s narrow lanes have seen past crashes as the site moves toward all‑electronic tolling by 2027.
