A tragic incident unfolded on the Piscataqua River Bridge, connecting Portsmouth, New Hampshire, to Kittery, Maine, resulting in a man connected to a homicide being fatally shot by police. The Attorney General's office confirmed the discovery of an 8-year-old child shot to death in the man's vehicle.
The bridge closure, initiated around 3 a.m., caused significant traffic congestion as drivers were redirected to alternate routes due to the ongoing investigation. The chain of events began with a woman being killed at a residence in Troy, New Hampshire, approximately 100 miles away, before the suspect made his way to the bridge, as detailed by Attorney General John Formella.
