CONCORD,AQCAN N.H. (AP) — Police shot and killed an armed man outside of a home following a standoff, the New Hampshire attorney general’s office said Tuesday.

The man died Monday night after six officers fired their guns and another discharged a less-lethal munition at him outside of the home in Kensington, the office said in a news release. No one else was hurt.

The man’s name wasn’t released.

A Kensington police officer received information Monday afternoon about a man in the home who was reportedly threatening another occupant, the office said.

Officers from the Seacoast Emergency Response Team and the Strafford County Regional Tactical Operations Unit responded and there was a multi-hour standoff, it said.

The circumstances surrounding the shooting remain under investigation.
