A man wanted on multiple charges was arrested Wednesday by Manchester’s SWAT team at a home on Laurel Street. Officials said the SWAT team received information that 41-year-old David Wilson was at the home and may be armed. After six hours of trying to Wilson to come out voluntarily, officers entered the home and located Wilson on the second floor.

A small bundle, determined to be crack cocaine, was located in Wilson’s sock. Inside the residence, police also located a loaded 9mm firearm and suspected heroin/fentanyl.

Wilson is charged with resisting arrest, possession of a controlled drug with intent to distribute, and felonious use of a firearm.
