The preliminary investigation has determined that a 2007 Ford Focus, occupied by Larry Niles Jr., 53, of Londonderry, had been stopped in the right breakdown lane when it was struck from behind by a 2015 Chevrolet Express van, driven by Aiden McCarthy, 22, of Dracut, Massachusetts.
After the collision, both vehicles stopped in the right breakdown lane, on the southbound side of Interstate 93.
Niles Jr. was transported to an area hospital with serious, life-threatening injuries.
McCarthy was not hurt.
Troopers were assisted at the scene by members of the Derry Fire Department, Londonderry Fire Department and the New Hampshire Department of Transportation.
No charges have been filed at this time; however, all aspects of the crash remain under investigation.
