3 men arrested, fourth at large after gunshots reported in NH forest, police say
A report of gunshots in a New Hampshire forest led to the arrest of three men and a manhunt for a fourth that’s prompted local schools to be locked down, police said Tuesday.
Officers at the scene saw four people in the Henderson-Swasey Town Forest, at least two with handguns and one in a ski mask, Exeter police said. They all ran into the woods toward a construction development, leading officials to order lockdowns at local schools as a cautionary measure.
One man of the armed men was quickly taken into custody and two others were detained leaving the woods near Industrial Drive, according to police, leading to the recovery of another gun.
While a fourth, unidentified, person remains at large the three men taken into custody, on charges of resisting arrest, were from Massachusetts. Exeter police identified them as 20-year-old Worcester resident Luis Rosado, 20-year-old Lowell resident Luis Negron and 19-year-old Lawrence resident Xaier Deleon, and said further charges may be filed against them.
It wasn’t immediately clear if the three men had attorneys who could speak to their arrests.
Local public schools, as well as Phillips Exeter Academy, were on lockdown amid the investigation, according to the Portsmouth Herald, which reported a heavy police presence on Epping Road for an unknown reason.
NBC10 Boston has reached out to Phillips Exeter and the Exeter school district, SAU 16, for more information.
A New Hampshire State Police representative said the agency was helping Exeter police with the investigation, but referred further questions to local police.

Homeless Camp Fire Extinguished Off Fort Eddy Road In Concord: Video
CONCORD, NH — Concord fire and rescue teams, as well as the forestry unit, were sent to a homeless camp fire off Fort Eddy Road on Saturday morning.
Around 1 a.m., a Concord police officer, who was patrolling near the Everett Arena on Loudon Road, reported seeing a fire in the woods across the river. The officer told dispatch they thought it might be behind the former Shaw’s supermarket.
“It looks like a pretty large fire,” they said, “I’m going to head there.”
Police dispatch contacted Concord Fire Alarm, which sent firefighters and the forestry unit to the scene.
The first-arriving officer said the fire was behind Lowe’s, but the best access was from Fort Eddy Plaza. After additional police arrived, they entered the woods to find the camp. Firefighters then arrived at the scene.
After about 10 minutes, officers discovered the exact location of the camp and the fire and reported there were several people in the area.
The fire battalion commander said they would be sending in “a little bucket brigade to put it out.”
