WATERBORO (AP) — Two York County men charged with stealing an arsenal of 10 guns from a Waterboro home are headed to court.
Authorities say 22-year-old Travis Wakefield of Lyman, and 22-year-old Nathan Desfosses of Shapleigh, are scheduled to be arraigned in Biddeford District Court on Friday.
Police tell The Portland Press Herald the homeowner returned Wednesday afternoon to find the men fleeing from his house.
The homeowner notified authorities, who used a state police dog to track the suspects.
Trooper Matt Williams and his dog found the 10 handguns hidden in woods near the home. The dog then flushed out the suspects.
Both men are charged with burglary and are being held on $10,000 bail.
