Autopsy: Woman In NH Crash Was 8 Months Pregnant

CONCORD, N.H. (CBS/AP) — Autopsies show a man and a woman who died in car crash on Interstate 89 in Lebanon suffered injuries to the head, trunk and pelvis and that the woman was about eight months pregnant.

The autopsy also shows the fetus died as a result of blunt force trauma from the collision Saturday.

The attorney general's office says 24-year-old Amanda Murphy and 29-year-old Jason Timmons of Wilder, Vt., were traveling north on I-89 in Lebanon when their car was hit by a pickup truck driven by 53-year-old Robert Dellinger of Sunapee.

Authorities say Dellinger had been driving southbound when he crossed over the median and collided with the victims' car.

Dellinger was arrested Tuesday afternoon when he was discharged from Dartmouth Hitchcock Hospital. He has been charged with two counts of Manslaughter and will be arraigned Wednesday.
