A 21-year-old Claremont, N.H., man is being held at the Southern State Correctional Facility awaiting arraignment tomorrow, Wednesday, June 17, to answer to a charge that he broke in to the JJ Hapgood General Store in Peru on Monday.

    A big thank you to the Police Dept. Where would we be without them? Without them everything we have will be stolen probably even our lives. I so appreciate them!
