Manchester police issued an arrest warrant for a man accused of committing a fatal shooting on Hanover Street on Friday.

Manchester Police Chief Carlo Capano and Attorney General Gordon MacDonald identified the shooter as 26-year-old Paul Dimick. They said he shot Justin Lee, 32, who later died at the Elliot Hospital.  

Dimick is described as a white male, 5'6", with blonde hair and blue eyes. Police say he is considered armed and dangerous.

The shooting led to Central High School being on lockdown for hours. 

Students, including one of Manchester Mayor Joyce Craig's children, were released Friday night around 7:30.
