DOVER A SWAT team responded to Whittier Falls housing Friday, where police arrested two men in connection with a suspected robbery. The crime was held at gunpoint hours earlier at a different location, according to police.
The Strafford County Regional Tactical Operations Unit, with weapons drawn, and Dover police were joined at the Dover Housing Authority residential area by New Hampshire State Police and a police dog unit.
Dover police Chief William Breault said the suspects arrested were Christopher A. McLaughlin, 22, of Newton, Massachusetts, and Ande Keele, 22, of Brockton, Massachusetts.
Dover police Lt. Scott Pettingill said no one was injured and after the arrests there was no danger to the public. He said the SWAT team was utilized because police knew the suspects were armed and they wanted to get them safely out of the building.
