SHAPLEIGH (NEWS CENTER) -- Shots being fired outside a home in Shapleigh has triggered a state police investigation into possible foul play.
Neighbors reported hearing gunshots and screaming around six thirty Thursday morning at a home surrounded by woods on Lake Sherburne road.
State police surrounded the home but no one was inside. They believe the shots were fired outside the home on the edge of the woods based on evidence they discovered.
'We found some evidence that kind of raised our suspicions somewhat that there may have been some foul play involving a gun. I am not at liberty to discuss what that is,' said Lt. Louis Nyitray with the Maine State Police.
State police could release their findings Friday. The home's owner, Rodney Gagne was not there at the time of the shooting. He showed up several hours later. He was arrested and charged with a misdemeanor for entering the crime scene.
