Man From Nashua Accused Of Accidentally Firing A Gun Inside An Apartment

NASHUA, NH — A man from Nashua was arrested late last month after being accused of firing a gun inside a Gate City apartment.

On Dec. 30, 2025, police were sent to the Lofts 34 apartment building for a report of a gun being fired inside one of the apartments. A building manager told officers Aaron Christopher, 45, of Nashua, had accidentally fired his gun in the apartment, according to Sgt. John Cinelli, the public information officer and communications division supervisor for the Nashua Police Department.

“The bullet went through the stove, the wall, and then into a washing machine,” Cinelli said.

Detectives furthered the investigation and later issued an arrest warrant on a single felony count of reckless conduct with a firearm against Christopher. He was arrested on Jan. 28, was released on personal recognizance, and is scheduled to be arraigned in Nashua District Court on March 4.

Anyone with information regarding the case was asked to call the Nashua Police Department Crime Line at 603-589-1665.
