Shooting Investigation Underway On Bodwell Road In Manchester

MANCHESTER, NH — Police, fire, and EMS were dispatched Monday to an incident possibly involving a shooting at an apartment building on Bodwell Road in Manchester.

Fire and EMS were asked to stage away from the scene at just before noon until the scene was secured by Manchester police.

Police required all residents of the 3-story building to evacuate the building. After waiting outside for police to check the building the residents were allowed to return.

Fire and EMS were cleared without transporting anyone from the scene.

Shortly after firefighters cleared, there were several police cruisers, detectives, and a crime scene van at the scene.

Manchester police officers stopped people coming to the building to be assured they were residents.

Crime scene tape cordoned off an area around a silver vehicle in the rear of the building. Officers were positioned at each door of the building, and near the car that was taped off.

Late Monday afternoon a person from the Office of the NH Medical Examiner was on the scene.

Residents from the building where the bodies were located expressed concern about their safety.

New Hampshire Patch will update as more information becomes available.
