CANDIA, NH – Three people are dead, and two are injured following a head-on crash on Route 101 in Candia, New Hampshire, on Saturday.

The drivers of the Toyota and Jeep died from their injuries. The passenger of the Jeep was rushed to Elliot Hospital with life-threatening injuries. The passenger died from their injuries at the hospital.
The two passengers of the Nissan were also injured in the crash and taken to the hospital as a precaution with non-life-threatening injuries. They were identified as 57-year-old Timothy McMahon and 18-year-old Kelly McMahon from Peterboro, New Hampshire.
There is no information about the identities of the victims.
Both lanes of Route 101 were closed due to the crash. They reopened the eastbound lane shortly after the accident. The westbound lanes were closed for four hours.

AG: Man wanted in Hampton Beach shooting died by suicide
The New Hampshire Attorney General’s office said a man who allegedly shot two people in Hampton Beach died by suicide when confronted by police.
In a joint statement, the state Attorney General’s office, State Police and Hampton Police Chief Alex Reno identified the man as Tyshawn Cooper, 21, of Taylors, South Carolina, who was declared dead at the scene.
Initially, officers responded to reports of a shooting at about 1:19 a.m. Sunday. Police said they located a man and woman suffering from gunshot wounds in the area of 29 Ocean Boulevard.
Officers found a man who matched the description of the suspected shooter at the intersection of P Street and Ashworth Avenue. During their interaction, police said the man pulled out a handgun and raised it, then shot himself in the head while an officer also fired.
The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner performed an autopsy Sunday and determined the cause of death was suicide.
The 23-year-old man and 25-year-old woman who were shot were taken to the hospital for treatment of their injuries.
The shootings remain under investigation.
The Attorney General’s office said it will also investigate the police officer’s use of deadly force, though the officer that fired did not cause Cooper’s death. No other injuries were reported.
