Man arrested in connection with “faculty shooter” signs found in 3 New Hampshire communities

BARNSTEAD, N.H. -- A man was arrested Friday after multiple indicators saying "faculty shooter" had been found in Barnstead, Epsom, and Pittsfield, New Hampshire, the state's Division of Safety introduced. Guy Hanson, 61, of Pittsfield, faces a number of charges. 

An increased quantity of cops were placed at faculties in the communities as a result of the indicators. Multiple faculties initiated lockdowns as a precaution shortly after.

Hanson allegedly positioned the indicators around the communities, the Department of Safety stated, but they decided there is no such thing as a credible risk presently.

One such signal was written on a paper plate. The protection division released a photograph of the plate but blurred part of it "to protect the integrity of the investigation." 

Hanson was arrested on a felony cost of legal threatening and three misdemeanor expenses including false report back to law enforcement, false public alarm and felony threatening. He is being held in Merrimack County Jail pending a listening to scheduled for Tuesday.

No different suspects have been charged at the moment.
