LEBANON, N.H. (WCAX) There is an active shooter investigation at the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, New Hampshire.

File photo

A spokesman for the hospital tells WCAX News there is an incident and police and officers are responding.

We are hearing from inside the hospital and from Dartmouth College officials that parts of the hospital are on lockdown and some rooms are barricaded. Some people have been evacuated.

An employee at the hospital tells us an alert went out over computer monitors, saying there is an active shooter on ICU-4 Main Campus, lock and barricade yourself in secure locations until further notice. Another worker told WCAX News that all workers received an email from the hospital about a "code silver," telling them to get out if possible and otherwise to shelter in place.

Police want everyone to avoid the area.

We have no information about any casualties from police. We have crews en route and will update you as soon as we have more information.

Vermont State Police say they are assisting New Hampshire law enforcement with the incident but they released no details.

(Oh wait, am I getting ahead of the media on this?)

Can't confirm but here is a FB page of a Travis Frink. Possibly in Rhode Island. Seems like a bit of a nut based on his posts and he is a Trump hater for sure.

Travis Frink Facebook

May not be him

He has an “IMPEACH TRUMP NOW” post up there, with a link. States Trump should be above the law.

Gag me with a pitchfork!

Wing nut!

Some of his stuff was actually decent, but when I arrived at that post, it became clear the guy had issues.

Thank you.

Appy Pappy was urging restraint too.

I think that’s a good idea.

I did use the link to go ever there and look around, and reported on what I found.

Was probably a mistake to do it, at this point.

Thanks.

From an August 23rd post:
"We may not agree on sports teams or fashion sense. But a well-crafted single malt Scotch will always be common ground."
Cant be all that bad but seems like he could have "issues" of course you may get the same impression from my FB page.

I agree on using restraint and not jumping to conclusions... but somebody should screen-shot that stuff ASAP, just in case it turns out to really be him and the PTB decide to erase or alter his history.

Why in the world would he be attacking those of a like mind? Everyone in that area wants Trump impeached.

To: who knows what evil?

Third hand reports are that suspect shot his mother in ICU, took a hostage to the exit and was arrested.

They have his car and are going to his home now.

Didn’t spend much time there.

Strange, if that’s the dynamic there overall.

Your question seems very reasoned to me.
