From the Androscoggin County Sheriff’s Office:

On December 15, 2025, the Androscoggin County Regional Communications Center received a 9-1-1 call from a residence in Livermore Falls requesting police assistance before the call was disconnected. Officers from the Livermore Falls Police Department responded and quickly determined that an active home invasion was occurring. Three males—two from New York and one from Livermore Falls—forced their way into the residence and physically assaulted a resident with dangerous weapons. Livermore Falls Police requested assistance from the Androscoggin County Sheriff’s Office. One suspect was detained at the scene, while two others fled on foot. Deputies responded to a nearby residence associated with the suspects. During the investigation, an additional male from New York was located hiding inside the residence. Deputies also obtained information indicating that the three males from New York had been trafficking a large quantity of illicit drugs from this location. A search of the residence resulted in the seizure of approximately 203.3 grams of illicit drugs, with an estimated street value of $30,000, along with approximately $8,000 in suspected drug trafficking proceeds. The Livermore Falls Police Department utilized a drone and successfully located one of the suspects who had fled, lying in the woods nearby.
