NEWMARKET, N.H. − The Newmarket Police Department is informing the public of an ongoing investigation into vandalism, several motor vehicle break-ins and the theft of a firearm that involves several Newmarket juveniles.
A review of video surveillance led to the identification of possible suspects who are juveniles.
Residents continued to report vehicle break-ins continued on Monday and Tuesday, May 25 and 26. On the morning of Wednesday, May 27, an individual reported that they had discovered their firearm had been removed from their unlocked vehicle. A subsequent investigation determined that the weapon was taken over the weekend, at about the same time as other reported incidents.
Police have determined that the juveniles involved transferred the firearm to a juvenile in another community. Newmarket Police are working with law enforcement in that community, and the firearm has been recovered.
Police expect to file charges against the juveniles once their investigation is completed. ♦
