Derry Man Charged in Hudson Double Stabbing

A Derry man was arrested Friday in connection with a double stabbing that occurred last week in Hudson.

At 9:30 a.m. Friday, the Hudson Police Department arrested Joshua J. McKinnon, 32, on an oustanding Hudson Police warrant. He was charged with two counts of first degree assault and one count of armed robbery. The charges are stemming from an investigation conducted by the Hudson Police Department's Criminal Investigation Division.

On Jan. 28, Hudson Police detectives were called out to investigate a stabbing which occurred off of Bockes Road, where a male subject and a female subject had been stabbed by an unknown assailant. The male victim had sustained injuries to his neck and hands, while the female victim had sustained injuries to her face. Both were transported to the Southern New Hampshire Medical Center, where they received treatment for their wounds. Through further investigation, detectives were able to obtain an arrest warrant for McKinnon. 

McKinnon eventually turned himself into the Hudson Police Department, where he was processed in accordance with department policy and procedure. Bail was set at $50,000 cash. He is scheduled to be arraigned at the 9th Circuit Court in Nashua on Monday.
