A statement posted Sunday on the Facebook page of the sheriff’s office said Lemire shot her husband with a handgun. Her husband’s name was not released.
The shooting happened at the couple’s home on Clark’s Cove Road around 7 p.m, police said. The victim was treated for non-life threating injuries at Miles Memorial Hospital in Damariscotta and Maine Medical Center in Portland and then released.
Because of the serious nature of the allegations, Lemire is being held without bail pending her initial court appearance this week.
