Gun Incident Locks Down Hudson Elementary School

From a Hudson Police Narrative: 

On November 8, 2013 at about 1:30 p.m., the Hudson Police Department received reports of a male subject and two female subjects having a verbal altercation outside 3 Burns Hill Road. Also, it was being reported that the male subject was holding a firearm during the argument. As the officers continued to respond, additional information was received that the male subject and two female subjects entered 3 Burns Hill Road, Apt. 46. Upon the officers’ arrival, the exterior of 3 Burns Hill Road the building was surrounded.

Due to 3 Burns Hill Road being in close proximity of the Nottingham West Elementary School, a “Shelter In Place” was initiated.

According to Hudson Police Sgt. Mike Gosselin, a "shelter in place" order differs from a lock down, as it basically locks down the exterior of the school.  No one is allowed to enter or exit the building and the school continues through its normal routine.  This is used as a precautionary method in the event there is some sort of police activity in the area of the school.

At 2 p.m., contact was made via telephone with the male resident of 3 Burns Hill Road, apartment Apt. 46. Subsequently, the male resident and two female subjects exited the apartment building without incident, and identified as the subjects involved in the verbal altercation.

After an on scene investigation, Aaron Holden, 23, of 3 Burns Hill Road, apartment Apt. 46 was taken into custody for Disorderly Conduct, a class A Misdemeanor. Holden was released on $1000 personal recognizance bail and will be arraigned at the 9th Circuit Court in Nashua on November 21, 2013.

At 2:10 p.m., the “Shelter In Place” was lifted from the Nottingham West School. At no time were the students, faculty or employees of the Nottingham West Elementary School in danger due to this incident.
