A New Hampshire woman who police say “recklessly” drove her car into her neighbors out walking their dog last night, killing one leaving and the second fighting for her life, has been charged with second degree assault and drunken driving.

“We are devastated,” said Aboul Khan, a New Hampshire state representative and Seabrook selectman. “They walk their dog almost every day after dinner time and we talk to them all the time. We are so sad.”

Erin and Stephen VanDalinda were struck in the collision; Stephen, 64, and the family dog were killed and Erin, 61, remains hospitalized with serious injuries, police said.

Catrina Costello, 38, has been arrested on felony and misdemeanor charges, including three counts of stalking, two counts of driving under the influence and aggravated collision with serious injury, two counts of second degree assault with extreme indifference and two counts of conduct after an accident causing death or injury.

Khan said the VanDalinda’s have had disputes with Costello, their neighbor on Greenleaf Drive in Seabrook, N.H., over their abutting property line in the past. According to Khan, the VanDalindas have a restraining order against Costello.

Khan said the couple had three children in their 20s and were in the process of selling their home.

“They are very, very nice people,” Khan said. “You cannot find better people than them.”

Police got a call about the crash around 6:20 p.m. yesterday on Pine Street in Seabrook.

Costello is scheduled to be arraigned in the Rockingham County Superior Court today at 1 p.m.

The investigation is ongoing, and involves New Hampshire Attorney General Gordon J. MacDonald, New Hampshire State Police Colonel Christopher J. Wagner, and Seabrook Police Department Acting Chief Brett J. Walker.

An autopsy is being conducted today to determine exactly what caused the Stephen VanDalinda’s death.

Anyone who has information or may have witnessed this event is asked to contact Sergeant Marc Beaudoin of the New Hampshire State Police at 603-223-8678
