A disturbing incident in New Hampshire has left two women seriously injured after a violent attack inside a home. The case has shocked the local community, as it involves a family dispute that quickly turned into a life-threatening situation. Police have arrested the accused, and further investigation is underway.
Man Arrested for Attempted Murder
Chandler Walden, a 29-year-old man, has been taken into custody and charged with multiple serious offences. These include two counts of attempted murder, several counts of assault with a deadly weapon, and domestic violence-related charges.
Authorities say he allegedly attacked his own sister and her friend, leaving both with severe injuries.
Police Respond to Emergency Call
The incident took place on March 15 in Londonderry, New Hampshire. Police received a call around 8:50 p.m. reporting a stabbing at a house on Chase Road.
When officers arrived, they found two women outside the home with multiple stab wounds. Bystanders were already trying to help them before emergency services took over.
Both victims were rushed to different hospitals and are reported to be in serious condition.
Suspect Found Inside the House
After securing the scene, police entered the house and found Walden inside. He was arrested without any resistance.
Officers noted that he had blood on his hands and neck at the time of arrest. When asked about weapons, he reportedly told police they were left in his room.
Weapons Used in the Attack
According to investigators, Walden used both a hatchet and a steak knife during the attack. These weapons caused multiple injuries to the victims, especially on their head and upper body.
Later, police recovered the suspected weapons from a trash can in his bedroom after carrying out a search of the house.
Argument Escalated into Violence
Reports suggest that Walden had been arguing with his sister earlier in the day. After some time, the sister and her friend returned home and found him behaving strangely.
He was reportedly spraying air freshener around the house and shouting loudly before suddenly attacking his sister.
Friend Injured While Trying to Help
When the sister’s friend tried to step in and stop the attack, she was also assaulted. Due to the chaos, she could not clearly see everything, as her glasses were knocked off during the struggle.
Both women suffered serious injuries during the incident.
Alleged Statement Before Attack
One of the victims told police that Walden made a troubling statement before the attack. He reportedly said he was going to end “years of abuse” and that “it ends tonight.”
Police are still investigating these claims to understand the full background of the case.
Current Status of the Case
Chandler Walden is currently being held without bond at the Rockingham County House of Corrections. A court hearing is scheduled for March 25.
Authorities are continuing their investigation to gather more details and determine the full circumstances behind the attack.
