Description

In a wild Monday morning in Durham, New Hampshire, a registered sex offender named Rory Robertson unleashed fireworks at police officers after they tried to pull him over — escalating into a tense standoff that forced a neighborhood shelter-in-place. With explosive shells flying and one nearly hitting an officer, tactical teams responded as Robertson, already wanted for breach of bail and theft, allegedly fired from his home. After a dramatic eight AM confrontation, officers used pepper balls to subdue him — he suffered minor injuries and now faces serious charges including reckless conduct with a deadly weapon. No officers were hurt, but the community got a chaotic, boom-filled start to their day.
