New Hampshire authorities are looking for an "armed and dangerous" suspect wanted in connection to a deadly shooting that happened Saturday in Manchester.
Authorities announced Monday that Crimeline is offering a reward of up to $1,500 for information that leads to the arrest of Timothy Johnson.
The New Hampshire attorney general's office announced Sunday that an arrest warrant had been issued for Johnson, 38, charging him with one count of second-degree murder.
Authorities allege Johnson shot 67-year-old Jean Lascelle in the head on Chestnut Street just after 8:30 a.m. Saturday.
Lascelle was taken to Elliott Hospital but he died from his injuries. After an autopsy was conducted, the state medical examiner determined Lascelle's cause of death was a gunshot wound to the head. His manner of death was ruled a homicide.
Officials say Johnson was last seen in front of 351 Chestnut Street, just a half-mile from the SNHU Arena, at approximately 8:39 a.m. on Feb. 13.
