'Suspicious' Man Identified as Not a Threat

A man sought Wednesday morning after banging on the door of a Hampton Falls' home is no longer considered a threat or a possible security issue, according to the Hampton Falls Police Department.

"Through the Seabrook Watchdog[s] group, and one of our own officers, the subject was identified as an arborist checking with a property owner for permission to cut some trees," said Lt. Tom Boynton.

Police had issued a release and an identification request Wednesday after a "suspicious" man allegedly walked up a Brimmer Lane home's driveway, banged on a door of the home and left the property.

Boynton thanked "everyone that responded" to his inquiry to help his department identify the individual.
