A suspect is in custody after a shooting at a New Hampshire country club left one person dead and multiple others injured on Saturday, authorities said.
Authorities have identified the suspect as 23-year-old Hunter Nadeau. He’s accused of fatally shooting 59-year-old Steven DeCesare.
The deadly shooting took place at Sky Meadow Country Club in Nashua, New Hampshire, according to the Nashua Police Department.
The New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office said one man entered the club and fired several gunshots – striking one man and killing him. Authorities said the suspect shot and wounded two other adults.
Nadeau has been charged with one count of second-degree murder for knowingly shooting DeCesare, though additional charges are likely. Authorities said there is no known connection between the two men.

The shooter was detained at the scene and taken into custody, the AG’s office said, adding that “there is no present threat to the public.”
Authorities had initially reported that two armed suspects fled the scene, and that while one was in custody, another remained at large. The AG’s office has since said those reports were “erroneous” and the one and only suspect is in custody.
“Additional information will be released as it becomes available while protecting the integrity of the investigation,” the New Hampshire AG’s office said.
