Good Evening, Hinsdale and Visitors!👋

We have a few things to share before everyone heads into the weekend!

🎯 1. Police Department Range Use

The Hinsdale Police Department will be utilizing the shooting range this Saturday from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. So, if you hear some activity coming from that area during those hours, no need to be alarmed!

🚨 2. A Little Reminder About Respecting Other People’s Property

We’ve had several incidents around town involving break-ins and significant vandalism. Unfortunately, some of these incidents have been determined to involve juveniles.

Parents and guardians, please take a moment to remind your kids about making good choices, respecting other people’s property, and being accountable for their actions. And, of course, know where your kids are and what they’re up to.

As for the adults who are still engaging in this type of behavior… well, if you know one and think a good heart-to-heart might finally do the trick, by all means, give it a shot.

Otherwise, feel free to let us know. We’d be happy to introduce them to a fellow by the name of Ernesto Miranda. 📖

We even have a juvenile edition for our younger audience.

All jokes aside, breaking into someone else’s property isn’t just illegal. It’s dangerous for everyone involved, including the property owner and the person committing the crime. What someone might consider a harmless adventure or prank can quickly turn into a very serious situation.

Let’s all do our part to respect our neighbors, their property, and the community we share.

🎃3. Don’t forget that there is a curfew in place for juveniles under 17, which is based on a town ordinance. Juveniles located in town on any public property or roadway, after 8pm on October 30 and October 31st without a parent or guardian will be in violation. All other weekdays out of the year is 10pm and 11pm on the weekends.

Historically, Cabbage night and Halloween 🎃 would get out of hand, thus the reason for the difference in times.

Trick or Treating is from 5pm - 8pm on October 31st.

Have a safe weekend, Hinsdale! 🚓

Plan accordingly for the delay. Please consider taking an alternative route for your morning and afternoon commute.

Good Afternoon,

Earlier today, there was a call into Cheshire County Dispatch that a male subject was walking on Old Brattleboro Road who had a fi***rm in his hand, at his side, and later went into a yard with the fi***rm still at his side. Multiple agencies were dispatched to the area out of an abundance of caution.

The individual was later located and it was found that no crime had occurred and that the gun was a BB-gun. The roadway opened up shortly after speaking to the individual.

**While no crime had occurred, it is important to educate yourselves and your children on the importance of safe handling of BB-guns/pellet guns, which can cause great bodily harm and even death to others. A BB-gun/pellet gun today, from even a short distance resembles a real handgun. Please use sound judgement when carrying a BB-gun/pellet gun.

Good Morning,

We are currently in possession of vehicle parts that were left behind early this morning after multiple mailboxes and their heavy-duty posts were struck and destroyed. The damage to the vehicle involved would have been significant.

If you were driving that vehicle:

1: We hope you are okay.
2: Please contact us to discuss the situation, including the consequences of leaving the scene of an accident and potential criminal mischief charges.

We are actively working to identify the individual involved and will pursue an arrest warrant if necessary. Taking care of this voluntarily is far less inconvenient than the alternative.

The vehicle appears to have a number marking—maybe their favorite NASCAR driver? Could this be a fan of Spencer Boyd?

If anyone has information or camera footage of a vehicle traveling westbound on Brattleboro Road after 4:00 AM on 04/27/2026 or has any additional information, please contact Chief Melissa Evans at 603-336-5723 or [email protected].
