Three Manchester residents were arrested for resisting arrest Wednesday after, police say, they refused to come out of a Merrimack Street house when ordered to do so by officers. The city's SWAT team used a robot and a police dog to locate the three and arrest them. They were identified as Sara Loveren, 38, Chesley Wohren, 52 and Gordon Keith, 45.

Officers from the Manchester Police Special Enforcement Division "converged" on 470 Merrimack Street at 8:40 a.m. to execute arrest warrants, and called for the occupants to come out but they did not comply, according to a news release.



Officers deployed a robot inside the house and found Loveren and Wohren, who eventually came outside. Keith did not, and police sent a police dog in to help apprehend him. Keith was taken to the hospital to be treated for a dog bite, police said.

In addition to the charges of resisting arrest, Loveren was charged with possession of a controlled drug..
