Portland police and several state and local law enforcement agencies investigating this week’s fatal Forest Avenue shooting executed a search warrant at a residence in Gray on Friday evening, News Center Maine reported.
A Portland police spokesperson confirmed the search was related to the shooting near Morrill’s Corner on Tuesday night but did not share additional details about the search Friday night, the television station reported.
A woman was killed and three other people were injured in the shooting, which was reported about 8:45 p.m. Tuesday.
Police said Susan McHugh, 54, died from a gunshot injury. Her death was ruled a homicide. The identities and conditions of the three people who were brought to Maine Medical Center had not been released as of Saturday night.
Police have remained tight-lipped about the investigation and have not announced any arrests in the case. As of Wednesday, officials confirmed that no suspects relating to the shooting investigation had been taken into custody.
Several cruisers, an armored vehicle and crime units responded to the scene in Gray, News Center Maine reported.
“Around 4:30 (p.m.), the whole street was filled with SUVs. The armored vehicle was blocking the driveway,” a person who said they witnessed the response and asked to not be identified told News Center Maine.
The person also said they saw a U-Haul come out of the driveway with a black Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
The scene in Gray was largely cleared out by 8 p.m. Friday. A few law enforcement vehicles lingered at the residence and in the area, and Portland police at the scene deferred questions to their criminal investigation division.
The Maine State Police Tactical Team assisted Portland police in the response, but Department of Public Safety spokesperson Shannon Moss deferred all questions pertaining to the situation to Portland police.
Portland police are asking anyone with information related to the shooting to call investigators at 874-8575 or to text PPDME and a message to 847411.
