A man was shot to death during an apparent argument with another man inside an apartment building in Somersworth, N.H. on Monday evening, according to the state attorney general’s office.
He was found suffering from a gunshot wound outside the apartment building at 97 High St. at around 7:20 p.m., according to Attorney General John M. Formella’s office.
The second man suffered an injury but it was not a gunshot wound. The injury is not believed to be life-threatening, Formella’s office said in a statement.
The identity of the man fatally shot will not be released until his next of kin have been notified, the statement said.
An autopsy to determine the cause and manner of his death is due to be performed on Tuesday, according to the statement.
The second man who was injured was found in a hallway inside the building.
“Investigators have learned that there are several witnesses who may have seen or heard an argument between the two men moments before the shooting but left the area without speaking with responding officers,” the statement said.
There is no known threat to the general public.
The incident is under investigation.
Anyone who saw the event but have not yet spoken with police should contact the Somersworth Police Department at 603-692-3131.
