Tragic Loss: 30-Year-Old Alex Naseef Killed After Truck Crashes Into Milan Pond Along Big Island Road
Milan, NH – The small and tight-knit community of Milan is mourning the tragic and untimely death of 30-year-old Alex Naseef, who was killed in a devastating crash after his truck veered off the roadway and submerged into a local pond along Big Island Road.
The fatal incident occurred late Sunday evening, June 29, 2025, in the rural town of Milan, nestled in Coös County, New Hampshire. According to preliminary reports from state and local authorities, Alex Naseef had been traveling alone in his pickup truck when, for reasons still under investigation, he lost control of the vehicle. The truck reportedly left the roadway at a sharp curve and careened into Milan Pond, a serene body of water often enjoyed by local fishermen and nature lovers.
Emergency crews were dispatched to the scene immediately after a passerby noticed tire tracks leading toward the water and called 911. When first responders arrived, they found the truck submerged in the pond with only a small portion of the vehicle visible above the surface. Dive teams were quickly deployed and tragically discovered Alex Naseef inside the cab of the truck, unresponsive. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The New Hampshire State Police and local fire departments worked into the night to retrieve the vehicle and piece together the events that led to the fatal crash. While the cause of the accident remains under investigation, officials have not ruled out weather conditions, speed, or mechanical failure. Toxicology results and a full accident reconstruction report are pending.
Alex’s passing has sent shockwaves throughout Milan and the greater North Country region. Known for his warm heart, tireless work ethic, and kind spirit, Alex Naseef was a beloved son, brother, friend, and member of the community. Friends and family describe him as someone who lived life with integrity and compassion—a man who always stepped up to help others and who had an unforgettable smile that could brighten any room.
He had deep roots in Milan, where he grew up surrounded by the natural beauty of the North Country. An avid outdoorsman, Alex loved hiking, snowmobiling, fishing, and spending time around the very woods and waters that he called home. He worked in the local trades and was admired for his skill, reliability, and dedication to his craft. Many in the area remember him as someone who never hesitated to lend a hand—whether it was helping a neighbor shovel snow, volunteering for community events, or simply being a friend when someone needed one most.
His sudden death has left an irreplaceable void in the hearts of all who knew him. Friends, neighbors, and loved ones have already begun placing flowers and candles near the edge of Milan Pond, turning the accident site into a quiet place of remembrance and reflection. A community vigil is being planned in the coming days, where family members will be joined by friends and townspeople to honor Alex’s life and legacy.
Alex Naseef is survived by his parents, siblings, extended family, and a wide circle of friends who are devastated by his loss. As one close friend shared, “Alex was one of the good ones—the kind of person you only meet once in a lifetime. He loved deeply, worked hard, and gave his all to the people and place he loved.”
In this time of unspeakable grief, the family has asked for privacy as they come to terms with the tragic loss. A memorial service will be announced in the days ahead. In lieu of flowers, those who wish to support the family are encouraged to contribute to a fund being set up in Alex’s name, which will help cover funeral expenses and support local community causes that were close to his heart.
As Milan and the surrounding communities come together in mourning, Alex Naseef’s memory will live on in the lives he touched, the friendships he nurtured, and the love he gave so freely. Though his time was far too short, his impact will be remembered always.
