Massachusetts couple seriously injured in ATV rollover crash in New Hampshire

BERLIN, N.H. — A Massachusetts couple was seriously injured when the ATV they were riding flipped over at a state park in New Hampshire.

Emergency crews responding to a report of an ATV crash in Jericho Mountain State Park in Berlin on Friday afternoon found Robert and Melissa Totaro, both 41, of Auburn, suffering from serious, but non-life-threatening injuries, according to the New Hampshire Fish Game Law Enforcement Division.

While descending a long hill, the couple encountered oncoming traffic and attempted to navigate to the far right side of the trail, but their ATV went over a berm, became unstable, and rolled over, investigators said.

Robert and Melissa were both wearing helmets and eye protection at the time of the crash, which significantly reduced injuries, according to officials.
