NASHUA, N.H. (AP) — Police say a New Hampshire driver fleeing an officer crashed her car and ran off, leaving an injured 6-year-old boy behind.
Police in Nashua said the officer saw 32-year-old Tracey Pelletier using her cellphone while driving Tuesday. The officer tried to stop her, but the car accelerated.
