Less than a day after the shooting, police arrested Dominic Moncada-Sanchez, 19, of Portland, and charged him with aggravated attempted murder, elevated aggravated assault and violating conditions of release.
Police say they took Moncada-Sanchez into custody at about 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday in South Portland, with the assistance of the South Portland Police Department.
Moncada-Sanchez is accused of shooting a 17-year-old at the Meadowbrook apartment building, located at 1390 Forest Ave.
Portland Police said officers responded to the affordable housing apartment building for a report of shots fired at about 2:20 a.m. on Tuesday.
Officers at the scene discovered a 17-year-old who was suffering from a gunshot wound.
Portland Police said that the juvenile was taken to Maine Medical Center with life-threatening injuries but is now in stable condition.
“We’d like to acknowledge the FBI Safe Streets Task Force, the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency and South Portland PD for their assistance in making this timely arrest,” Portland Police said in a Wednesday statement.
Moncada-Sanchez is being held at the Cumberland County Jail without bail.
What is Sanchez immigration Status ? … Any Gang affiliation ? …..
“Portland Police said officers responded to the affordable housing apartment building for a report of shots fired at about 2:20 a.m. on Tuesday.” Isn’t “affordable housing” a euphemism for what we used to call “the projects”?
In a few short years Mills and the democrat party have turned a large portion of Maine into a total shithole.
Send him back to wherever he came from . Maine doesn’t need people like this . Human trash polluting our communities .He will kill somebody sooner or later . Thanks Kamala and Joe for letting these people into the country
From today forward Portland shall be known as mills town. It’s a shame what the libs have done to you town, oh well vote better next time. In the meantime were raising your taxes and you might also want to think about bulletproof windows and door reinforcement.
19 and 17 year olds……..2:30 AM, nothing good happened at 2:30 AM……well maybe fishing, but that don’t usually involve firearms!
Isn’t the “affordable housing projects” places where the democrats and Catholic Charities house illegal immigrants?
Oh O! One of the best and brightest in the US to seek a better way of life? Asking for a friend.
