Merrimack Man Stabbed In The Leg During Domestic Argument

MERRIMACK, NH — A man was stabbed in the leg Friday night during a domestic argument, leading police to arrest both people involved in the incident. According to the Merrimack police, Catholic Medical Center called police shortly after midnight on Saturday, saying a patient was being treated for a stab wound that resulted from a family argument earlier that night in Merrimack.

Dillon Brown, 19, and Robert Brown, 50, were charged in connection with the incident. Police claim that Dillon Brown stabbed Robert Brown in the leg during an argument at their Merrimack home Friday night. Police say they went to the home to investigate the incident, and by speaking with family members there, they learned that Robert Brown had assaulted another family member during the same argument.

Dillon was charged with first-degree assault in connection with the stabbing. He is free on personal recognizance bail and is scheduled to appear for arraignment Sept. 12 in Hillsborough County Superior Court.

Robert Brown is charged with three counts of domestic violence. After getting out of the hospital, he was taken to the police station and then released on personal recognizance bail. He is scheduled to appear for arraignment at Merrimack Circuit Court on Monday.

Arrests do not indicate guilt.
