AUGUSTA — The search continues for a person wanted for questioning in a triple slaying in northern Maine as the State Police crime lab examines a pickup truck that belonged to one of the victims.

Police say the pickup truck was set afire in Weston, about 15 miles from an Amity home where the three bodies were discovered last week. Killed were 55-year-old Jeffrey Ryan and his 10-year-old son, Jesse, who lived at the Amity home, and 30-year-old Jason Dehahn, a neighbor.

State Police spokesman Steve McCausland says investigators believe the pickup was taken from the crime scene by a “person of interest” who’s wanted for questioning.

McCausland said today that a team of detectives continues to work the case but he declined to offer any specifics on progress.
