STANDISH — A 45-year-old man could face charges after allegedly being discovered outside a Standish man’s house wearing nothing but a windbreaker.
A Cumberland County sheriff’s deputy responded to a home on Richville Road Sunday at 8:13 p.m. for a report of a prowler. When the deputy arrived, he learned that the resident had confronted a man who he had spotted in the bushes near his house. The two men fought and the alleged prowler, naked except for a windbreaker, was injured.
Police found the man bleeding from his injuries at his home not far away and he was taken to Maine Medical Center for treatment of his injuries and signs of hypothermia, the sheriff’s office said. Police did not identify the man because he has not been charged.
Information about the case has been presented to the Cumberland County district attorney who will determine whether any charges should be brought and whether any mental health issues contributed to the man’s behavior.
