Woman Accused Of Smashing A Window At A NH DHHS Office Building On The Concord Heights

CONCORD, NH — Concord police took one woman into custody after she was accused of smashing a window at a state office building on the Heights on Thursday afternoon.

Around 3 p.m., police were sent to Terrill Park Drive after a report of a woman smashing windows at the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services Concord District Office of the New Hampshire Employment Program. Several officers arrived, but the woman had already left the scene. According to dispatch, the woman was at the office earlier in the day and reportedly was causing problems.

Dispatch gave officers the woman’s name and a description of her appearance and what she was wearing. She also had a cane, they said. One officer asked if she smashed the window with the cane, and dispatch said, “It was a chair.”

When officers arrived, they learned the woman walked toward Airport Road and officers began canvassing the area for her.

Just before 3:30 p.m., officers found the woman just off the intersection of Airport Road and Regional Drive and attempted to make contact with her. Dispatch reported her native language was French, and she did not know a lot of English, according to scanner chatter. Another officer told the officer on Regional Drive to detain the woman on disorderly conduct and criminal mischief charges.

More officers were also sent to the DHHS office.
