Witnesses also gave the name of the suspect, a man, possibly living on Merrimack Street in Concord but who previously lived in Manchester and had prior criminal history, according to information online. They also said they believed the suspect was still armed. Witnesses claimed the suspect was beating up a woman when another man stepped in to stop the assault. After that, the suspect pulled out a gun and shot the other man, according to scanner chatter.

Several officers made their way to the scene as well as created a perimeter and secured the area so fire and rescue teams could arrive to assist the victim.

The first arriving officers said there were four people inside the manufactured home at the time of the shooting. One officer put pressure on the victim's wound, in an effort to stop the bleeding, according to scanner chatter. Fire dispatch said the victim was in and out of consciousness.

Officers began searching the area for the suspect, including driving both north and south of the park, and also requested a K-9 unit, something dispatch was already working to get. Officers checked apartment complexes and other areas but were unable to find the suspect.

EMTs arrived and took the man to Concord Hospital around 2:15 a.m.

New Hampshire State Police also arrived to assist.

Around 2:35 a.m., an officer safety stop and hold BOLO (be-on-the-lookout) call was issued statewide for Evan Hollins, 41, of Dorchester, Massachusetts.

Officers spent a number of hours searching the area, checking buildings, and meeting with building managers connected to several apartment buildings in the area searching for the suspect.
