A Bow man was arrested on multiple charges related to driving the wrong way for several miles on Interstates 293 and 93 and causing another driver to veer off the road.

Brian Kunst, 49, was stopped in Concord and was arrested for reckless conduct with a deadly weapon and driving while intoxicated. He was held at the Merrimack County Department of Corrections and has been ordered to appear in Concord District Court on Monday. 

Early Sunday at 12:37 a.m., New Hampshire State Police began receiving reports of a wrong-way driver traveling northbound in the southbound lanes on I-293 near mile marker 7.4 in Manchester. Additional reports followed as the wrong-way driver continued northbound in the southbound lanes on I-93 in Hooksett.

A single-vehicle crash with non-life-threatening injuries south of the Hooksett tolls was also reported after a driver attempted to avoid a head-on collision with Kunst and went off the road, police say.

Kunst continued in the opposite direction until he was stopped by Trooper Joshua Farmer of the Troop D barracks on I-93 in Concord.
