Trio charged after putting anti-mask stickers on Manchester City Hall, police say
Three men are facing criminal mischief charges after police say they stuck multiple stickers critical of New Hampshires COVID-19 mask mandate in and around Manchester City Hall last month.
Officers investigating a Feb. 2 report that stickers criticizing the mandate had been found placed on doors at City Hall, trash cans, and traffic sign posts determined the stickers were difficult to remove and made reference to living in fear, citizens being controlled, and masks being a sign of cowardice, police said in a release.
After reviewing video surveillance, police located and charged Skylar Bennett, 38, of Concord, Frank Staples, 41, of Manchester, and Jason Gerhard, 35, of Northfield, with criminal mischief.
After learning of warrants against them, Bennett and Staples turned themselves over to Manchester police.
