A Naples man connected with a shooting at a Casco camp and a suspicious death in Naples during the weekend was shot and killed during an exchange of gunfire with Cumberland County Sheriff Deputies Sunday.

Norman J. Strobel, 59, was shot by deputies around 5 a.m. Sunday at a mobile home on Songo School Road in Naples after he allegedly shot and severely injured one man staying at a camp in Casco and shot and killed another man with whom he lived.

Per protocol, the two deputies involved in the shooting have been placed on administrative leave while the investigation by the Attorney General’s Office is underway.

At a press conference Monday afternoon, Sheriff Kevin Joyce said six deputies went to 73 Songo School Rd. in an attempt to locate Strobel. They found the home with lights on inside and an outside light on.

A knock on the door went unanswered, so they peered into a window, looking for Strobel and two dogs belonging to his ex-girlfriend, which Strobel had reportedly stolen.

Looking through the living room window the deputies saw Strobel with blood on his face, according to Joyce, and entered the mobile home to attempt to help him. The deputies entered the residence in lines of two and identified themselves, Joyce said. Strobel appeared with a gun in his hand, and shots were fired.

Two deputies were involved in the shooting: one is Sergeant Andrew Feeney, the second is Deputy Derek Brill. Both have worked for the Sheriff’s Office for nine years.

They have been placed on paid administrative leave, which is standard-procedure for shootings involving an officer.

At the mobile home in Naples, deputies found the body of 55-year-old Richard Dickema, who lived at the mobile home. State police said he was shot and killed by Strobel, who had moved into the mobile home recently. The state police is investigating the death.

The Cumberland County deputies had been looking for Strobel following a shooting at roughly 10:45 p.m. Saturday in Casco.

Jason Almeida, 32, of Middleton, Rhode Island, was staying at a Casco camp with his girlfriend, Alyssa Goulet, 28, also of Middleton. According to a press release sent Sunday, two men approached the camp Saturday night, and one of them fired shots through the window, shooting Almeida several times.

At the scene, Goulet identified Strobel, who she was familiar with, as the shooter.

Almeida was taken first to the Bridgton Hospital and then to Central Maine Medical Center in critical condition. Goulet was not injured.

Almeida remains in critical condition.

When asked at a press conference Monday to confirm whether Strobel was alone outside the home or whether another man was present at the shooting, Joyce said he could not confirm whether there was one man or two outside the home, saying the deputies had received “mixed messages.”

Joyce said a 9mm shotgun was used in the shooting. A Glock handgun was also located at the residence on Songo School Road following the fatal shooting.

Joyce said Strobel had confessed to the shooting in Casco to a deputy, but could not confirm the context of the confession.

Strobel was the ex-boyfriend of Sandra Goulet, who owns the Casco camp, but was not at the camp at the time of the shooting. Deputies were previously trying to locate Strobel on charges of violating a protection from abuse order filed by Goulet.

Goulet’s two dogs were alive and safe at the mobile home in Naples.

Strobel had been released from the Cumberland County jail roughly a week before the shooting. He had served approximately two months in jail on charges of violating a protection from abuse order.

According to a press release from the Sheriff’s office, Strobel’s sentence was reduced by 18 days for good time and institutional work time. He was released Saturday, Nov. 19.
