REPORTS: Man Found Shot in The Face in Gardiner, Maine, Rushed to Maine Med
According to a Facebook Post from the Gardiner Maine Police Department, a man was found with an apparent gunshot wound to the face on Wednesday.
Gardiner Police are reporting that on Wednesday morning at about 11:40 am, police officers responded to the area of Cherry and Water Streets for reports of a man that was apparently bleeding from the face.
When officers arrived, they quickly learned that the injured party had in fact been shot in the face. Police say those injuries may possible have been sustained on Green Street.
Paramedics were called to the scene and the man was taken to Maine General in Augusta, though was subsequently transferred to Portland's Maine Medical Center.
Gardiner Police say they were assisted at the scene by deputies from the Kennebec County Sheriff's Office.
Currently there is nobody in custody as police continue to investigate. However, the Facebook post does say that police don't believe that there is a threat to the public.
This is a developing story and we will continue to keep this article updated as more information comes in to us.
