NEWBURY — A 22-year-old Newbury man was killed early Monday morning in a car accident on Wallace Hill Road.
Troopers from the St. Johnsbury Barracks responded to the scene at 5:37 a.m. after receiving reports of the crash near the intersection with Stark Trail.
They discovered a 2000 Jeep Wrangler that had suffered extensive damage.
Daniel Sweet, the driver and sole occupant of the Jeep, was pronounced dead at the scene.
