Man arrested in reference to “college shooter” indicators found in 3 New Hampshire communities

BARNSTEAD, N.H. -- A person was arrested Friday after multiple signs saying "faculty shooter" had been found in Barnstead, Epsom, and Pittsfield, New Hampshire, the state's Department of Security announced. Guy Hanson, 61, of Pittsfield, faces multiple expenses. 

An elevated quantity of law enforcement officials have been placed at schools within the communities because of the indicators. Multiple faculties initiated lockdowns as a precaution shortly after.

Hanson allegedly placed the indicators around the communities, the Division of Safety stated, however they decided there isn't any credible menace at the moment.

One such signal was written on a paper plate. The security division released a photo of the plate but blurred a part of it "to protect the integrity of the investigation." 

Hanson was arrested on a felony cost of criminal threatening and three misdemeanor prices together with false report back to law enforcement, false public alarm and prison threatening. He's being held in Merrimack County Jail pending a hearing scheduled for Tuesday.

No different suspects have been charged at the moment.
