Four men accused of breaking into a Lyman home and holding a family of five at gunpoint in January have been indicted on multiple charges by a York County grand jury.
The men – who are all from New Hampshire or Massachusetts – are accused of holding the family at gunpoint and sexually assaulting one family member before stealing guns, money, medical marijuana and electronic equipment, according to Maine State Police.
Xavier Watson, 23, of Brentwood, New Hampshire; Andre Thomas, 20, of Lawrence, Massachusetts; Vincent Casazza, 19, of Newmarket, New Hampshire; and Reynan Mora, 23 of Lowell, Massachusetts, were all arrested within a week of the alleged home invasion.
A York County Grand Jury this week indicted all four men on five counts of robbery with a weapon (Class A), five counts of criminal threatening with a weapon (Class C), one count of burglary with a firearm (Class A) and one count of theft with a firearm (Class B). Watson also was indicted on a charge of unlawful sexual contact (Class B).
They face up to 30 years in prison for the Class A charges, up to 10 years in prison for the Class B charges and up to five years in prison for the Class C charges.
State Trooper Jonathan Heimbach, who headed the investigation, said in January that the four men entered the home in Lyman and held the occupants at gunpoint as they ransacked the house. Two shotguns, several hundred dollars in cash, medical marijuana, four cellphones and two laptop computers were taken, he said.
