CONCORD, NH — The Concord Regional Crimeline issued two alerts this morning related to two alleged robbery incidents in Concord during the last 24 hours. Robberies were reported last night at the Dunkin’ Donuts on Manchester Street and a second incident was reported at the Shell gas station on Loudon Road early this morning. During the Dunkin’ Donuts incident, which occurred at just before 5 p.m. on May 31, 2017, a white man, in his 20s, and about 5 feet, 6 inches tall, allegedly robbed the store armed with a knife, according to Det. Sgt. Robert Buelte of the Concord Police Department.
