The attorney general's office says Ryan Milligan, who resigned from the Merrimack Police Department, voluntarily surrendered his certificate and agreed to not seek future employment as a law enforcement officer as part of his plea agreement. The 36-year-old was accused of using state police data to write up fake warnings he claimed to have issued during a traffic enforcement assignment. He pleaded guilty to two misdemeanors and was fined $3,400 with all but $600 suspended for two years.
