From Manchester, NH Police Dept.:

On June 23, 2021 at approximately 8:15 PM, Manchester Police were dispatched to the area of West Bridge St and McGregor St for a report of a road rage incident in which the driver of an SUV pointed gun at someone.

The caller said he was in traffic and had honked at another driver who was not moving. After he did this, the driver got out of his SUV and walked toward the victim’s vehicle pointing a gun at him.

Soon after the report came in, an officer responding to the area saw an SUV matching the description of the suspect vehicle. More units responded to the area and the vehicle was later spotted on 293 South and eventually stopped on the Everett Turnpike.

27-year-old Demetrius Taylor of Litchfield was taken into custody. Taylor was charged with Criminal Threatening and was also found to have a warrant out of Hooksett. He is scheduled for arraignment in Hillsborough Superior Court – North today (6/24).
