Man arrested in connection with “school shooter” indicators found in 3 New Hampshire communities

BARNSTEAD, N.H. -- A person was arrested Friday after multiple indicators saying "faculty shooter" had been found in Barnstead, Epsom, and Pittsfield, New Hampshire, the state's Division of Security introduced. Man Hanson, 61, of Pittsfield, faces multiple costs. 

An increased quantity of law enforcement officials were positioned at faculties within the communities on account of the signs. Multiple colleges initiated lockdowns as a precaution shortly after.

Hanson allegedly positioned the signs around the communities, the Department of Safety said, but they determined there is no such thing as a credible threat at this time.

One such sign was written on a paper plate. The protection department launched a photo of the plate but blurred part of it "to guard the integrity of the investigation." 

Hanson was arrested on a felony cost of prison threatening and three misdemeanor prices including false report to legislation enforcement, false public alarm and legal threatening. He is being held in Merrimack County Jail pending a hearing scheduled for Tuesday.

No different suspects have been charged at the moment.
