WELLS, Maine — A man from Indiana allegedly stabbed another man from the same state at the Misty Harbor Resort Motel in Wells on Sunday morning.

Dillon Pastors, 23, has been charged with elevated aggravated assault, according to a release from Wells police.

Police said Pastors could not post $10,000 bail and was taken to the York County Jail. 

The alleged victim, a 22-year-old, was taken to Maine Medical Center, where he is moving and talking, according to Wells Police Sgt. Chad Arrowsmith. Arrowsmith said police are not releasing his identity at this time.

Police said that when they went to the motel shortly before 10 a.m., they found the alleged victim with multiple stab wounds to his upper body. He told police he'd been assaulted with a knife by a man he knew.

Police said witnesses saw Pastors run into a marsh area behind the motel. Officers and a K9 from the York Police Department chased him and arrested him near Atlantic Avenue.

The investigation into the incident is ongoing. Wells Police Sgt. Chad Arrowsmith asked anyone with information about this incident to call him at 207-646-9354.
