Police Make Arrest After Keene State Put On Temporary Lockdown

Keene Police Department

Keene police have arrested a man they say fired a gun during a domestic dispute Wednesday morning, prompting a lockdown at nearby Keene State College and Wheelock School.

Tyler Day, 22, is facing five felony charges, including reckless conduct and criminal threatening, as well as three misdemeanors. He is scheduled to be arraigned this afternoon at Keene district court.

Police say they responded to the area of Proctor Court around 9:30 Wednesday morning for a report of a domestic disturbance.

Police say Day had left the scene, but was taken into custody on Court Street an hour later.

No one was injured.

The Cheshire County Sheriff’s Office, state police, and law enforcement from Chesterfield, Swanzey and Winchester assisted.
