Police said a woman told them a man was fatally shot and was in her home, but then led them on a chase into Massachusetts and back before she was arrested. They didn’t find a body.
Police in Nashua said they had contact Wednesday with 54-year-old Carmelita Vergez, who told them about the death, but drove off as they attempted to learn more.
They said Vergez led them into neighboring Tyngsborough, Mass., where she caused a minor collision before driving back to Nashua.
Police said her car struck another car, and she ran down an embankment before she was arrested. She faces charges of disobeying a police officer, conduct after an accident, resisting detention and arrest. It wasn’t immediately known whether she had a lawyer.
