CONCORD, N.H. (WHDH) - New Hampshire police have identified a woman who died after crashing into a row of trees off of a highway in Concord on Sunday morning.

Troopers responding to a call about some debris on I-93 south just before 5:30 a.m. were led down a 30-foot embankment off the right side of the roadway near marker 42 where they found a 2018 Hyundai Elantra resting against some trees, police said.

The driver, identified as Elisabeth Philbrick, 33, of Concord, was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.

Philbrick’s 5-year-old son, who was in the car at the time, was unharmed, police said.

He was taken to Concord Hospital for evaluation, according to police.

A preliminary investigation suggests that excessive and unreasonable speed may have been a factor, police said.
