Concord Police were called to the area of 2 Capital Plaza at 8:05 p.m. on Saturday, March 25 and located a suspicious device.

The New Hampshire State Police Explosive Unit was called in and determined it was a smoke-style device designed to generate smoke rather than an explosion, police said.

The Concord Police Department is asking anyone with information to contact the Criminal Investigation Division at 603-225-8600 or online at www.concordregional crimeline.com.

Described by owner Emmett Soldati as a "hub for activism and celebration of the LGBTQ community," Teatotaller first opened in Somersworth, NH in 2011. A new Teatotaller location is expected to open in Dover in 2024.
