Claremont tells residents to boil water

CLAREMONT, N.H. (AP) - The city of Claremont, N.H., has put into effect a boil order for the municipal water system.

The city says water samples collected on Tuesday show fecal coliform or E. coli bacteria were found.

Residents have been told not to drink the water without boiling it first.

The city said it anticipates resolving the problem within a few days.
