Police were sent to the Concord Public Library at 45 Green St. for a report of two people, a man and a woman, “acting strange” who “appeared to be impaired inside the library,” an affidavit stated. The reporting officer first spoke to a woman in her late 30s, who asked if library staff called the police and then admitted to being “a little aggressive” inside. Staff then pointed out the man, Griffin, and police went to speak with him. He asked why police were speaking with him and the officer explained library staff said they both did not seem to be acting right, a report stated.

Griffin “immediately began to tell me there was a small black cross strap bag that was not his, it was (the woman’s),” the affidavit stated, “(and) he asked if I could give it to her.” The woman came over, was asked if the bag was hers, she denied it, and Griffin was then searched and secured in the police cruiser, the officer wrote. His belongings were searched, and inside the black cross-strap bag was a small baggie with a white crystal substance believed to be methamphetamine, according to the report. Griffin was taken straight to the county jail, and the officer noted his belongings were searched there. A tan rock substance, believed to be fentanyl, inside a plastic wrapper was found inside a glass container, the affidavit said. Griffin’s case was boundover from Concord District Court to Merrimack County Superior Court on July 16. He is due back in superior court for a dispositional conference hearing on Oct. 17.

ALBANY, NY (NEWS10) — A strong second half powered the UAlbany women’s basketball team to their third conference victory in as many contests on Thursday night.

COACH COLLEEN MULLEN: “To start the game, New Hampshire had great defensive intensity and pace. Once we settled in and started moving the ball, we were able to capitalize with our inside-out game. In the second half, we had solid offensive execution and grinded out multiple defensive stops. This was a great team win on both ends.”

KEY STATS

Graduate student Kayla Cooper led the team with 20 points, six rebounds, three steals, and three assists while shooting over 50% from the field.
Fellow graduate student Jessica Tomasetti followed with nine points and five rebounds. The point guard also shot 50% from the field.
Junior Gabriela Falcao tallied a team-high two blocks.
As a team, the Great Danes totaled nine steals with 19 points off turnovers.
The UAlbany defense did not allow any singular Wildcat to surpass seven points.

HOW IT HAPPENED

Graduate student Lilly Phillips scored the first basket of the game after a combined four scoreless possessions.
That defensive nature continued throughout the rest of the half.
New Hampshire gained a 9-5 lead within four minutes of action but the Great Danes quickly answered to tie the score in the next two minutes.
UAlbany ended the quarter with a one-possession advantage, 14-11.
Throughout the second quarter, the Great Danes allowed just two field goals for five Wildcat points.
Four different Great Danes scored in a defensive quarter to make it a 24-16 game at halftime.
The second half was a different game – UAlbany nearly doubled its score from the first half in the third quarter alone.
The Great Danes began the third with a 12-2 scoring run. Ten of those points were scored in just two minutes and 23 seconds.
Kayla Cooper and Jessica Tomasetti combined to score 10 additional points and close the third quarter with a 22-point advantage, 46-24.
Cooper and Tomasetti scored all but three of the 22 points in the third quarter. Cooper tallied 12 alone.
Following two fourth-quarter layups from senior Laycee Drake and Phillips, the Great Danes held a 26-point lead.
UAlbany continued to extend their lead throughout the next seven minutes of action. The largest lead of the contest came with 1:24 left – 29 points (59-30).
