A July 2 lockdown of the Pease Air National Guard Base was prompted by one person who reported hearing gunshots, but that person had never heard gunshots before, Police Chief Michael Bilodeau said Monday. Bilodeau said police followed up with that person, who reported hearing gunshots to a supervisor, who in turn called base security. The initial late-morning report led to a police response from multiple agencies, the base being put on lockdown and a subsequent search. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

PORTSMOUTH -- A 20th anniversary walk from Kittery to Market Square by members and supporters of NH Rebellion aimed to bring awareness to the need to remove big money from politics. The group was joined in the walk by Democratic presidential hopeful Kirsten Gillibrand, who later in the day joined Equal Citizens for a town hall meeting at 3S Artspace. Before the walk, select members of the group were in Portsmouth, depicting characters like James Madison, Justice John Stevens, Betsy Ross, Dark Money, SuperPAC and a Superior Court law clerk, who was stamping money with the message that the money was not to be used for bribing politicians.

PORTSMOUTH -- Charlie Howard was 23 when he died, 35 years ago, on July 7, in 1984. He was murdered when three boys, ages 15, 16, and 17, threw him off the Kenduskeag River Bridge in Bangor, Maine. He could not swim and they threw him over because he was gay. A memorial celebration of Howard’s life was held on Sunday at South Church. After the service, attendees each took a white rose and walked to the Memorial Bridge, tossing the roses into the Piscataqua River as a tribute to his life.
