A Goffstown man is facing four felony charges and six misdemeanors after a vehicle pursuit in Bow ended with a crash into a cruiser and a police dog takedown early Saturday morning, according to a news release from New Hampshire State Police.
Richard M. Greeley, 48, faces four vehicle- and drug-related felony charges and five misdemeanors after police say he attempted to elude a traffic stop initiated at the Interstate 89 Exit 1 off-ramp in Bow shortly after midnight. Greeley then allegedly led the trooper on a chase through several town roads before reaching a dead end in a residential neighborhood. Greeley attempted to reverse his vehicle, police say, ramming the front of the trooper’s cruiser before exiting the vehicle. Ragnar, a state police K9, apprehended Greeley shortly after, according to the news release.
Greeley was taken to Concord Hospital with injuries that were not considered life-threatening, state police said.
Greeley was being held Saturday at the Merrimack County Correctional Facility and is scheduled to appear at the Concord District Court on Tuesday, Feb. 20, according to the news release. He faces felony charges of reckless conduct with a deadly weapon, vehicle; drug possession; drug possession with intent to distribute; and drug possession, subsequent offense, as well as six misdemeanors related to driving while intoxicated, transporting drugs and resisting arrest.
