Vermont State Police say a 31-year-old man was arrested early March 7 after a vehicle crash on U.S. Route 7 in Glastenbury. The incident occurred just after midnight when police responded to reports of a vehicle off the road. Upon arrival, officers discovered a Jeep Compass that had struck a roadway marker, but the driver was initially absent from the scene.
According to police reports, the driver, identified as Dylan M. Niedecker of Arlington, was later found hiding in nearby woods. Troopers observed signs of impairment during their interaction with him. Niedecker was subsequently charged with driving under the influence and leaving the scene of an accident. He was taken to the Shaftsbury Barracks for processing and later released on a citation.
Niedecker is scheduled to appear in the Vermont Superior Court, Bennington Criminal Division, on March 23, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. It is important to note that these charges are allegations, and court dates may change as the case progresses.
