WATERVILLE, Maine — A man was shot Saturday in Waterville. Steve McCausland, spokesman for the Maine Department of Public Safety, identified the victim as 33-year-old Joseph Tracy. Tracy died early Monday morning from his injuries at Maine Medical Center in Portland.
Investigators are continuing to review the circumstances of the shooting. McCausland says an autopsy took place Monday at the State Medical Examiner's Office in Augusta.
The Waterville Police Department's police chief says the call came in around 11 a.m. Saturday morning.
The incident occurred in Home Place Inn on College Avenue.
"The Waterville officers responded and when they arrived on scene, they located an adult male in one of the rooms at Home Place who had suffered a gunshot wound, he was taken by ambulance to Maine General and then eventually he was life-flighted to Portland," said Joe Massey, the Waterville Police Chief.
Both Waterville and State Police Department are working on this case and they did not release any more details about this shooting.
The owner of The Barber Parlor on College Ave. said the Waterville police department closed a portion of College Ave. to investigate the scene with K-9 dogs.
"Cops stopped traffic at the light right there and surrounded the house," said Eric Signorelli from The Barber Parlor.
