According to the Bangor Daily News, 64-year-old Edwin Davis of Chester was arrested by Maine State Police on Thursday. He was charged with three counts of gross sexual assault.

In addition to a prison sentence, Davis could be fined up to $50,000 and placed on the sex offender registry if convicted.
He’ll make his next court appearance on June 14.
