A 27-year-old man was shot Wednesday and is in serious condition at Elliot Hospital as police search for the suspect.
MANCHESTER, NH – A 27-year-old man was shot Wednesday at a Maple Street grocery store and is in serious but stable condition at Elliot Hospital, as police search for the suspect, Diogene Nsengiyumva, 22, of Manchester.
According to Police Chief Allen Aldenberg the shooting took place at about 9:50 a.m. at El Parcero Market, 326 Maple St. Aldenberg said a “good quality” video was captured inside the store and they know who they are looking for.
“Two or three employees were in the store who witnessed the shooting,” Aldenberg said.
Police responded to the market and, almost simultaneously, were notified that a man with a serious gunshot wound showed up at the emergency room.
“We started to piece things together which brought us back to this location,” Aldenberg said, referring to the market. “This was not a random act of violence.”
He said it appears the two men were known to one another and that they had a “confrontation” inside the market prior to the shooting.
Police have issued a warrant for Nsengiyumva charging him with first-degree assault, reckless conduct with a deadly weapon, and theft by unauthorized taking (shoplifting). Anyone with information about his whereabouts should call Manchester Police at 603-668-8711. You can also remain anonymous and call the Manchester Crimeline at 603-624-4040.
