BEDFORD – A New Hampshire detective who was fired after his unmarked police vehicle was involved in a Bedford hit-and-run accident has been arrested.
Stephen Coco, a detective sergeant who was working in the Special Investigations Unit in Manchester, turned himself in to police Tuesday, four days after two teenage boys were hit from behind and injured as they were walking along a street. The vehicle left without stopping.
Authorities wouldn’t confirm whether Coco, 41, was driving. He was arraigned on two felony counts of conduct after an accident and was released on $20,000 personal recognizance bail. Court documents said Coco was to refrain from drinking any alcohol as part of his bail conditions.
Hillsborough County Attorney Patrice LaFrance said Coco lives about a mile away from where the teens were hit.![]()
