A police spokesman said New Hampshire authorities issued the warrant for a burglary, but he didn’t know if the charge was outstanding or if the man failed to abide by court requirements.
• Police initially arrested a 58-year-old Beverly man for driving under the influence of alcohol after a motor vehicle stop on report of an erratic operator on Maple Street near Essex Aggie at 6:47 p.m. The charge was dropped, however, and the man was released after he passed a Breathalyzer test.
