New Hampshire - LACONIA - Sheriff Craig Wiggin told the Belknap County Commission last night that the federal government has agreed to reimburse local law enforcement agencies for up to $30,000 of the personnel costs incurred in policing the Hell's Angels "World Run" held in Laconia last July.
The World Run, a convention of sorts, was the second held in the city since 2003. Wiggin said that initially he and former Laconia Police Chief Mike Moyer were informed that unlike in 2003 when the New Hampshire Congressional delegation secured federal funds they should not expect assistance. However, John Kacavas, the United States Attorney for New Hampshire, approached the United States Department of Justice (USDOJ), which provided funds through its "Project Safe Neighborhoods" program.
Wiggin estimated that between 500 and 600 Hell's Angels attended the World Run. He said that Laconia incurred $10,000 in additional expenses, Belmont $1,500 and the Belknap County Sheriff's Department $2,000 while Meredith and Gilford have yet to report, estimating the aggregate costs will be less than the $30,000 awarded.
