Nashua Man Held without Bail in Connection with Tyngsborough Armed Robbery

TYNGSBOROUGH – Tyngsborough Police Chief Richard Howe and Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan have announced that DEQUAN HAGEN, 19, of NASHUA, NEW HAMPSHIRE, was ordered held without bail by Judge Michael Brooks today following a 58A dangerousness hearing in Lowell District Court. The next hearing in this case is scheduled for Feb. 11.

HAGEN is charged with armed robbery, home invasion, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, assault with a dangerous weapon and malicious destruction of property over $1,200 in connection with an alleged stabbing that occurred on Jan. 3.

On January 3, at approximately 8:13 p.m., Tyngsborough Police responded to a report of a stabbing that had taken place on Frost Street in Tyngsborough. Through their investigation authorities learned that earlier that evening a juvenile male who resided in the Frost Road home planned to meet with the defendant after arranging a sale of a pair of Adidas Yeezy sneakers.

When the defendant arrived, the victim asked to meet the defendant in the garage. Subsequent examination of home security footage allegedly showed the defendant taking a knife out prior to the victim entering the garage. The defendant then allegedly stabbed the victim before fleeing the scene with the sneakers.

The victim was transported to an area hospital and has since been discharged.

On Jan. 4, an arrest warrant was issued for the defendant who then turned himself in to Tyngsborough Police.

HAGEN was arraigned in Lowell District Court on Jan. 7.

These charges are allegations and the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty.

The prosecutor assigned to today’s hearing was Assistant District Attorney Jacqueline McCormick.

The surveillance footage is not being released publicly at this time, and any further media inquiries should be directed to the District Attorney’s Office.

TYNGSBOROUGH — Chief Richard D. Howe reports that a wanted suspect has turned himself into police this evening.

DEQUAN HAGEN, AGE 19, OF NASHUA, NEW HAMPSHIRE was arrested and charged with:

  • Armed Robbery
  • Home Invasion
  • Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon
  • Assault with a Dangerous Weapon
  • Malicious Destruction of Property over $1,200

On Thursday, Jan. 3, at 8:13 p.m. police were dispatched to a home on Frost Road for a report of a past stabbing. Upon arrival, a responding officer learned that a 17-year-old male had been transported to an area hospital with injuries that are not believed to be life threatening after suffering a stab wound to his abdomen.

Tyngsborough Police initiated an on-scene investigation and determined that a suspect, who was positively identified as HAGEN, had come to the victim’s home to purchase a pair of sneakers, and an altercation began after HAGEN allegedly attempted to flee the home without paying for the shoes.

Officers observed damage to a door to the home’s garage as well as blood on the floor. After further investigation, officers determined that HAGEN allegedly fled to his vehicle after the attempted theft and returned with a knife. He then allegedly forced his way into the home and assaulted the victim.

Chief Howe wishes to remind residents that the Tyngsborough Police Department is available as a safe meetup spot for those completing online transactions in town. A sign in front of the police station indicates the designated location of the meetup spot.

HAGEN will be held pending his arraignment Monday in Lowell District Court.

These are allegations. All suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty.

Tyngsborough Police Cruiser Struck after Traffic Stop

TYNGSBOROUGH — Chief Richard D. Howe reports that a Tyngsborough Police officer was injured after his marked police cruiser was struck by a reversing suspect’s vehicle during a traffic stop.

A Tyngsborough Police officer conducted at traffic stop of a speeding BMW sedan on Pawtucket Boulevard at 5:53 a.m. Saturday. The vehicle pulled into a driveway, and as the officer stopped his cruiser behind the car, the vehicle suddenly reversed, striking the cruiser.

Officer Daniel Campbell, hurt from the impact of the crash and just two weeks out of the police academy, exited the vehicle and confronted the suspects at gunpoint as other police officers rushed to the scene to assist.

The driver, CAMILO CRUZ, AGE 27, OF NEWTON was arrested and charged with:

  • Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon (Vehicle)
  • Assault and Battery on a Police officer
  • Malicious Destruction of Property
  • Negligent Operation of a Motor Vehicle

There were two other passengers inside the vehicle. One of the passengers was found to have multiple arrest warrants. JOSE REYES, AGE 49, OF ROXBURY was arrested and held on warrants out of Boston Municipal Court for larceny and Roxbury District Court for drug possession.

Officer Campbell was treated and released at a local hospital with injuries that are not considered life-threatening. The police cruiser, a 2018 Dodge Charger, was totaled in the crash.

Chief Howe praised the professionalism and restraint of Officer Campbell, who kept his composure during the incident.

“The rigorous and effective academy training programs were on full display this morning, but at the end of the day, it was Officer Campbell himself, with less than a month as a full-time officer, who remained calm and used restraint in the face of an imminent threat,” Chief Howe said. “As a result, a dangerous incident was resolved without further escalation.”

Both suspects are being held pending arraignment Monday in Lowell District Court.

These are allegations. All suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty.
