The investigation is focused on two separate explosions, according to Weare police. The first was reported Wednesday around 6:10 p.m. near 362 Dustin Tavern Road. The second took place Thursday around 6:50 a.m. near 16 Sugar Hill Road and resulted in a passerby sustaining minor injuries, according to police.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms and Explosives has responded to the scenes and is investigating with assistance from state and local police.
