How scary!

Here in my area, the public schools are closed on voting days. I think that's the way it should be. Too many whackadoos today, in the world, to allow them access inside schools during a school day.

Hope the seriously shot person recovers.

Around 10:30 a.m. on Nov. 2 victims Tanya Rancloes, 30 of Colebrook, and Jessie Parker, 25 of Littleton, arrived at the Lake Francis Country Store with gunshot wounds. Pittsburg Police Chief Richard Lapoint was already at the store at the time and the victims implicated Mr. Arsenault as the shooter...

Chief Lapoint went to Mr. Arsenault's residence only to find a vehicle in the driveway on fire with a dead body inside. Days later the deceased was identified as Justin Flanders, 21, of Stewartstown. According to the autopsy report Mr. Flanders died from gunshot wounds and severe burns.

An all-points bulletin was issued for Mr. Arsenault and the nearby Pittsburg school went into lockdown which also curtailed that day's voting.

A 51-year-old Pittsburg man was sentenced Wednesday to 33 1/2 years to life in prison after he pleaded guilty to gunning down three people in a November 2010 shotgun ambush that left a 21-year-old West Stewartstown man dead.

If Kenneth Arsenault completes his minimum prison term, he'll be 84...

Arsenault "had issues with" Tanya Ranclose, 30, of Colebrook, including claiming that Ranclose had been pressuring Arsenault's girlfriend to provide her with drugs. Arsenault lured Ranclose to his home, and was hiding when she, Flanders and Jessie Parker, then 25, of Littleton, arrived. Arsenault opened fire on the three, according to Strelzin.
