A Buxton man is scheduled to appear in Springvale District Court Monday on charges of criminal threatening and criminal mischief following an incident early Friday morning in Saco.
A man who lives at 6 Clayton Lane reported that two men damaged a window frame on his house and used a baseball bat to smash two windows of his white 1998 Lincoln Town Car.
