UNITY, Maine — Law enforcement officials responded to a man's home in Unity on Thursday and arrested him for allegedly threatening another man with a gun.
Joshua Littlefield, 30, was taken into custody and charged with criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon, Maine Department of Public Safety spokesperson Shannon Moss said Friday in a press release.
Shortly before 4:15 p.m., Maine State Police got a call from a man who said he had been approached and threatened by a man with a gun while at the Unity Raceway, according to Moss. The victim identified the man as Littlefield, the release stated.
State police troopers then responded to Littlefield's home, along with the state police tactical and crisis negotiation teams, and they took him into custody.
Littlefield was taken to a nearby hospital for evaluation. Moss said he would be taken to the Waldo County Jail upon his release from the hospital.
The case remains under investigation, according to the release.
State police ask that anyone who may have witnessed the incident at Unity Raceway call Trooper Jackson at 207-624-7076.
