Now, State Police are asking for the public's help locating a vehicle they believe may have been involved in the incident. The vehicle is described as a 2016 black BMW X3 SUV, with Maine license plate 5614WM. Police say the SUV is registered to a 35-year-old Raymond Lester, out of Portland. The vehicle may have front-end or undercarriage damage. Police have released a stock photo of what the vehicle looks like, but this is not the actual vehicle in question.

Residents are cautioned that if they see the vehicle, they should not approach it, but instead call Maine State Police immediately at 207-973-3700.

Officials say this appears to be an isolated incident and that there's no ongoing public risk.
