A 19-year-old man's life was abruptly ended by a bullet in Concord, New Hampshire, triggering a homicide investigation by local authorities. The victim, identified as Zackary Sullivan, succumbed to a gunshot wound to the neck, New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella announced. The autopsy, performed by Deputy Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Mitchell Weinberg on Wednesday, confirmed the cause of death, reported NBC Boston. Witnesses observed a significant police presence at the intersection of Manchester Street and Old Turnpike Road on the fatal Tuesday night.
Investigators have concluded, according to the information released by Formella, that the individuals involved in Sullivan's death have been identified. While details surrounding the incident remain scarce, law enforcement personnel were expected to maintain a presence in the vicinity of Garvins Falls Road and Manchester Street for some time, NBC Boston mentioned in their reporting.
Residents were shaken as authorities cordoned off the area near a Dunkin' at 62 Manchester St., where Sullivan's body was discovered, as detailed by WCVB. The scene became a focal point for the Merrimack County Sheriff's Office and the Concord Police.
While the Attorney General's Office has proclaimed the absence of an ongoing public threat, anyone with information about the shooting is implored to contact the Concord Police Department. This call to action was echoed in a statement obtained by Boston 25 News, which also noted the investigation's continued progress. Concord Police can be reached at (603) 225-8600 or (603) 226-3100 for those wishing to provide assistance in the case.
