Nolan Trottier Killed in Fiery Francestown Car Accident

A tragic car accident in Francestown, New Hampshire, claimed the life of 21-year-old Nolan Trottier early Saturday morning. The incident occurred around 4:15 AM on Route 136 when Trottier’s Subaru Crosstrek veered off the road and collided with a tree. The vehicle immediately caught fire upon impact, making it impossible for a passerby to assist the driver.

New Hampshire State Police responded to the scene after receiving reports of the crash. Trottier, a resident of Francestown, was pronounced dead at the scene. He was the only occupant in the vehicle. Emergency personnel worked to extinguish the fire, but the severity of the crash left little chance for survival. The cause of the accident remains under investigation.

According to initial reports, Trottier’s vehicle had been traveling along Route 136 when it lost control and struck the tree. The force of the collision led to a fire that engulfed the car quickly, preventing any rescue efforts. Authorities have not yet determined what caused Trottier to lose control of his vehicle, and investigators are continuing to gather evidence.

In the aftermath of the accident, Route 136 was closed for approximately two hours while emergency services conducted their investigation and cleared the scene. State police have not released any further information regarding contributing factors such as speed or road conditions. Authorities are asking anyone with information or who may have witnessed the crash to contact Trooper Alexander Guilbeault at Alexander.R.Guilbeault@dos.nh.gov or 603-223-4381.

This crash marks the latest in a series of fatal accidents that have occurred in New Hampshire over a 24-hour period. In addition to Trottier’s death, two individuals lost their lives in a crash in New Ipswich, and a 17-year-old boy died in Dublin after his vehicle struck a tree. These incidents have sparked concern about road safety in the state, as authorities continue to investigate the causes behind the recent accidents.

The loss of Nolan Trottier has left the Francestown community grieving as family and friends come to terms with the tragedy. As the investigation continues, local officials emphasize the importance of driving carefully, particularly during nighttime hours, to help prevent further accidents.
