BOW, NH — Police are seeking the public’s help identifying those responsible for shooting Christmas inflatable displays in a residential neighborhood early Monday morning.

The incident occurred on Risingwood Drive at approximately 1 a.m., according to the Bow Police Department.

Several Christmas inflatable displays were shot with a firearm.

Preliminary investigation indicates the firearm was discharged from the roadway, suggesting the suspect or suspects may have been sitting in a vehicle or standing in the road at the time of the shooting.

The individual or individuals responsible may face charges including criminal mischief and reckless conduct involving a firearm.

Chief Miller said no one was injured in the incident.

“Discharging a firearm in a residential area, potentially from a vehicle, demonstrates a shocking disregard for the safety of our community,” Miller said.

Police are asking residents in the Risingwood Drive area and adjacent streets to review home surveillance footage from 1 a.m. to 2 a.m. Monday.

Anyone with information can contact Lieutenant Matt Pratte at 603-223-3950 or submit an anonymous tip through the department’s crime tip line at crimewatch.net/us/nh/merrimack/crimeline.
