Officials Say Activity Not Related To Burns Investigation
POSTED: 5:53 pm EDT October 26, 2009

WOLFEBORO, N.H. -- Police said there was a flurry of activity at the home of slain Wolfeboro mother Stacey Burns on Monday.

Police said they received a request to do a welfare check at 146 North Main St. at about 10:30 a.m. But by the afternoon, the scene was cleared.

Police said the safety of the neighborhood is their top priority, so authorities from Wolfeboro, Carroll County and state police arrived at the home. Police won't say who called or why, but they said no crime was committed, no investigation will follow, and everyone is safe.

"It was a welfare check, a check on an individual, which we did and determined everything was in order," said Wolfeboro Lt. Dean Rondeau.

The attorney general's office said the activity at the home was not related to the ongoing homicide investigation.

Police said Burns was stabbed to death five months ago inside her home. No arrests have been made.
