Bobs Burgers Star Rescued by NH Governor

Eugene Mirman, best known for voicing Gene Belcher on Bob's Burgers, was rescued from a burning car following a dramatic crash in Bedford, , on Tuesday. 

The 51-year-old comedian's 2026 Lucid Gravity was engulfed in flames after striking the Bedford Toll Plaza, according to TMZ.

A seasoned state trooper, joined by New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte and other bystanders, quickly sprang into action, pulling Mirman from the vehicle through a window to safety, WCVB reports.

Mirman was then rushed by ambulance to a nearby hospital with significant injuries.

Colonel Mark B. Hall praised the rescuers, calling their actions 'heroic' in a statement, adding, 'Without hesitation, they put themselves at risk to help someone in need.'

The incident remains under investigation, though no charges have been filed at this time, WCVB reports.

Governor Ayotte, 57, also assisted by grabbing a fire extinguisher from a nearby vehicle to help with the rescue, per Hall.

'She wasn't in harm's way at any point, but she has a great deal of care for our citizens and tried to do what she could at the scene to provide assistance,' Hall added.
