Attwood was taken to Elliot Hospital in Manchester with what appeared to be non-life-threatening injuries. She appeared to be seat belted and the airbags of the Volvo Cross Country vehicle activated, state police said.
Immediately after the crash, another two-vehicle crash occurred just south of the initial accident. No one was injured in the second crash.
Three lanes of travel were closed on I-93 while the accident was investigated and the vehicle was removed.
Preliminary investigation indicates that the accident occurred while the operator attempted a lane change, however, all aspects remain under investigation. Anyone who may have witnessed it is asked to contact Trooper T. Repucci at Timothy.Repucci@dos.nh.gov or 603-223-8836.
