MANCHESTER, N.H. (WHDH) - Police are searching for the driver of a stolen truck who led an officer on a pursuit in Manchester, New Hampshire early Thursday morning.
An officer spotted a dark-colored Chevy Silverado reported stolen out of Raymond traveling at a high rate of speed and failing to use turn signals on South Willow Street just before 4:30 a.m., according to Manchester police.
