Maine Attorney General Aaron Frey has ruled that a state police detective was justified in shooting an armed Dresden man.
According to CBS 13, the shooting occured last summer when police tried to serve an arrest warrant for 28-year-old Frank Foss Jr.
Officials say Foss was in the woods outside a Chelsea home when he pointed a gun at state police detective Scott Duff.
The detective fired two shots with one of them hitting Foss in the abdomen.
Police say Foss then shot himself in the head.
