Good morning, Nashua.

A man was taken to the hospital after an officer-involved shooting in Pelham Friday night — police said he was alert during transport and no officers were injured, while a section of Nashua Road remains closed for investigation.

On May 14, Mayor Jim Donchess held a Ward 7 meeting at Dr. Crisp Elementary School to update residents on Nashua's budget challenges, housing shortage, federal funding risks, and a rail trail scheduled to finish in 2026.

He said the housing shortage shows the city is safe and popular while rising costs for the school bus contract and firefighter workers’ comp add pressure — as residents asked questions about city affairs.

On May 15th, the Senate advanced two anti-sanctuary city bills to Gov. Kelly Ayotte’s desk to require law enforcement to follow ICE detainers when safe; the chamber also delayed other House proposals by re-referring a driver’s license measure and rejecting a voter roll verification bill — showing a split in legislative priorities.

New Hampshire author Jodi Picoult spoke at Keene State College commencement and strongly criticized a GOP-backed bill that made it easier to ban books from school libraries— the bill was discussed May 15.

She is known for her novel 'Nineteen Minutes'— the most banned book in the US.

Over 200 people signed an online petition asking for a bike lane—along with traffic calming measures—on Pine Street when it is repaved later this year.

Aldermen will review the proposal as they plan the upcoming improvements.

With summer on the way, a new guide names six top fishing spots in New Hampshire including Lake Winnipesaukee, Pemigewasset River, Massabesic Lake, and three state parks — where anglers can catch trout, bass, and perch while enjoying scenic views.

Anglers over 16 need a valid fishing license to fish legally.

On Thursday night, the New Hampshire Fisher Cats lost 11-10 to the Reading Fightin’ Phils at FirstEnergy Stadium in a three-hour, 22-minute game as they overcame a 7-2 deficit but fell when Reading’s Leandro Pineda hit a walk-off double + key hitter Yohendrick Piñango hit his sixth home run of the season.
