OSSIPEE — Carroll County commissioners are joining Ossipee selectmen’s call to the state to fix the deadly intersection of Route 28 and Route 171 where a young woman was killed in a collision last week. She was the third person to die at the intersection in two years.
Ramsie Taylor, 17, of Wolfeboro was killed the morning of Sept. 26 as she was driving to school.
