CONCORD, NH — Investigators with the New Hampshire State Police and the NH AG’s Office were in Hooksett yesterday for an untimely death call, according to reports.

The state police were called in after that.

“The deceased female was located during a well-being check in her home on Hooksett Road in Hooksett,” according to Peter Hinckley, a senior assistant attorney general.
