Boston Gun Fugitive Caught in NH

A fugitive from justice was arrested in Manchester yesterday after law enforcement in the Bay State tipped local police off to the possible location of the suspect in the west side of the Queen City.

Michael Tisme, 24, of Roslindale, MA, was arrested on Aug. 5, 2015, on warrants for discharging a firearm within 500 feet of a building, carrying a firearm without a license, and possession of ammunition without an FID card.

According to police, officers were sent to Douglas Street at just before 2:30 p.m. after receiving information from both the Massachusetts State Police and Natick Police detectives that Tisme, a fugitive from justice with extraditable warrants, might be staying with an unknown acquaintance.

They arrived at the address and took Tisme into custody without incident, according to a report from Lt. Brian O’Keefe of the Manchester Police Department. He was held without bail.

The acquaintance Tisme was with – a 25-year-old Manchester woman – was not charged. O’Keefe noted that she “may not have known” at the time that he was a fugitive.

Tisme is due to be arraigned today in Manchester District Court.
