NH man accused of threatening teens with gun and stun gun
Police in Manchester, New Hampshire, say a man is facing serious charges after threatening to shoot teenagers multiple times last month.
Scott White, a 34-year-old from Manchester, was initially arrested in the early morning hours of Feb. 21 on charges of loitering and prowling. He was found in a vehicle with two juveniles in the parking lot of Autofair Honda on Keller Street, police said.
White was arrested after police learned he did not work at the dealership and could not explain why he was there. They determined he had stopped another vehicle in the lot “and he was found to have a gun, badge, taser, and handcuffs with him,” the Manchester Police Department wrote in a press release.
Hours after he was released on personal recognizance bail, at 7:30 a.m. the same day, White was accused of pointing a rifle at two teenagers as they waited for a school bus.
Investigators then learned of another incident on Feb. 5 in which White was accused of threatening teenagers with a gun and a stun gun, following them with his vehicle.
Police arrested White again on Friday, one week after the incidents at Autofair Honda and the school bus stop. He faces charges of criminal threatening with a deadly weapon, criminal use of an electronic self-defense weapon and reckless conduct with a deadly weapon for the Feb. 5 case, as well as two counts of criminal threatening with a deadly weapon for the encounter at the bus stop.
White is being held on preventative detention, police said.
The incidents remain under investigation, and police ask anyone with information to call 603-792-5560. Anonymous tips can also be left by calling 603-624-4040.

TRAENE Fitness Pickleball Brings Pickleball Courts And Wellness Options To Dover
Dover, New Hampshire is finally going to see something go into the old Ames Building, (same plaza as Hannaford) at 833 Central Avenue. It’s not just “something,” it’s a Community space we didn’t know we wanted.
Justin Grondahl is the owner of TRAENE Fitness & Pickleball and he’s opening one here in Dover. He has 63,000 square feet to make beautiful. Justin is the son of the co-founder of Planet Fitness that started right here in Dover, New Hampshire.
Justin spent some time with me here in the Townsquare Studios and told me everything we can expect.
You will not believe what he has in store for this place. It makes me want to move to Dover. (although it’s like my 2nd home – I’m here all. the. time.) Check out what his plans are:
- 10 indoor pickleball courts
- 3,000 Square Foot Classroom for Megaformer Pilates Classes
- 20,000 square feet of just gym equipment
- 2 Cold Plunges
- 3 Saunas, with three floors. Lots of people can fit into them
- Big Locker Rooms
- Red Light Beds
- Massage Chairs
- Massage Beds
- Tanning Booths
TRAENE Recently Added a Peptide Clinic to their Plans
If you are unfamiliar with peptides, they are chains of amino acids that help you heal injuries, build muscles and in some cases, lose weight.
After Justin told me all this, I asked if they will have food and drinks too because it was the only thing I could think of that they didn’t mention! He said, “yes, we’ll have something.”
What’s Up With the Penguin?
When Justin came into the studio, he had a TRAENE branded shirt that included a penguin. When I asked him why a Penguin, he said that it has always been his favorite animal because they are very tied to their Community. They never really leave and they are always together.

Justin is already under construction of TRAENE. He said they should be open in the Fall of 2026.
Another incredible perk of being part of the TRAENE community is they are going to pick between 10 – 15 Members of the Month who are going to get rewards like:
- Renting out a race track
- Limo service to Bruins or Celtics games, whichever the member chooses
These trips will be all paid for, all free, Justin said.
New Fitness & Pickeball Center Opening Up in the Fall of 2026 in Dover, NH
