HPD: 2 people arrested in town after fleeing MassPike crash

by | May 16, 2025 | Featured: News, News, Police & Fire

The Hopkinton Police Department early Friday morning aided the Massachusetts State Police in the arrest of two people who fled into the woods off the MassPike near the Westborough line after being chased by police.

An HPD Facebook post stated that local police received a call from the MSP at around 2 a.m. Two people, later identified as Maria Kelliher and David Koukoulis, were involved in a motor vehicle pursuit with police when their vehicle crashed into the woods on the MassPike near Wood Street.

Three HPD officers responded and established a perimeter on North Street with the help of the Westborough Police Department. Officers used K9s and a drone to scan the surrounding forest. Kelliher was found shortly thereafter. She was evaluated by first responders on scene and taken into custody without issue.

At approximately 7 a.m., a 911 caller reported that a male was in a shed on Baldwin Lane. Officers identified him as Koukoulis and confirmed that he was the other party from the earlier incident. He was taken into custody without issue. Both individuals were handed over to the State Police for booking.

In an email to the Independent on Friday afternoon, HPD Deputy Chief Scott van Raalten indicated that he had no further information regarding the charges that will be filed by the State Police.
