Authorities say a Ryegate man is connected to an incident

Authorities say a Ryegate man is connected to an incident with U.S. Marshals in New Hampshire and Vermont Thursday afternoon. The FBI is investigating after a reported shooting in the Northeast Kingdom that involved an alleged assault on a U.S. Marshal. Authorities say it happened around 1 p.m. when a pursuit began in New Hampshire and ended along Route 5 in Ryegate, Vermont. Court records indicate the man involved is Douglas Reynolds Jr., 36, of East Ryegate, but he has not yet been formally charged in the incident. Reynolds was arrested in Bradford earlier this year where he was accused of drug possession, DUI, and being involved in a possible police chase. In that case, police found several firearms in the car.
