A Sunday evening argument on May 4, 2014, on Sylvain Street in Rochester, New Hampshire, ended with the death of 37-year-old Richard Dumont. Dumont, a plumber and tree worker, had been drinking with a friend and then walked to the home of his best friend, 39-year-old Robert S. Crichton. An argument escalated into a physical confrontation; Crichton, seated in his car, fired two shots from a Walther .380 semi-automatic handgun. The second shot struck Dumont in the chest and perforated his heart.

Emergency responders transported Dumont to Frisbie Memorial Hospital, where he died. Crichton placed a 911 call and the New Hampshire Attorney General’s office investigated. After reviewing the evidence, the Attorney General’s office ruled Crichton acted in self-defense, finding he was beginning to lose consciousness during the assault and feared for his life when he fired. No criminal charges were filed and the shooting was deemed a justified use of deadly force.

Did anyone in Rochester know Dumont or Crichton and have details about what led to that confrontation?
