GUILFORD (AP) — Police say one person was shot and three others required hospitalization following a street brawl in the central Maine town of Guilford.
The Piscataquis County Sheriff ’s Office says more than a dozen adults and juveniles got into a fight on a downtown street Monday night armed with baseball bats, knives and a dog.
Authorities say during the fight, one of two men attacked by the dog fired a gun toward the animal, but the bullet instead struck the dog’s owner. The man was hospitalized with non-lifethreatening injuries.
