Concord Police Investigating Shooting On Basin Street

CONCORD, NH — Concord fire and rescue teams and police were sent to Basin Street on Saturday for a reported shooting.

Just past 2:30 p.m., dispatch received a call from a man who said he had accidentally shot himself in the leg. A woman was with the man, according to scanner chatter. The woman, dispatch reported later, might have active warrants.

Officers confirmed the man was shot, and emergency medical services treated him.

One officer said they were pretty sure the man was a felon and was not legally allowed to have a firearm. The woman he was with was checked, was OK, and did not have warrants.

The man was taken by ambulance to Concord Hospital. Officers, including an evidence technician, also went to the hospital.

Deputy Chief John Thomas said Sunday the 33-year-old man was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

“Police are actively investigating the circumstances of the shooting,” he said. “The individuals involved in the incident have been identified. It has been determined that there is no danger to the public at this time. This investigation is ongoing.”

Anyone with information about the incident was asked to contact the Concord Police Department Criminal Investigations Division at 603-225-8600. Tips can also be submitted anonymously through the Concord Regional Crimeline at 603-226-3100 or concordregionalcrimeline.com.
