Police: NH man who took over Clinton office flees

CONCORD, N.H. — New Hampshire authorities say the man who took hostages at a Hillary Rodham Clinton presidential campaign office in 2007 has cut off his electronic monitoring bracelet and is a fugitive who is a danger to the public.

Strafford County Attorney Thomas Velardi says Leeland Eisenberg cut off the bracelet Tuesday morning. Verlardi says that was a day after Eisenberg was given a “last chance” at freedom by a judge who released him despite probation violations.

Velardi says Eisenberg should not be approached.

Eisenberg spent about two years behind bars for the November 2007 siege at Clinton’s campaign office in Rochester. He was released on probation last November. His first violation occurred soon after his release, when he failed to charge his monitoring bracelet.
