A 19-year-old man has been charged with murder in the death of 2-year-old girl in Wells.
Andrew Huber Young is accused of shooting the toddler and two men at a home Saturday afternoon.
The girl, Octavia Huber Young, later died.
The men shot are reportedly Octavia’s father and grandfather.
The men were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries and have since been released.
Octavia’s mother and other family members tell our news-partners at CBS13 that they’re devastated at this loss.
“All I know is she was full of life and she always loved to smile and play. She always wanted to be like her older sister,” said Samantha Higgins the mother of Octavia.
The relationship of the shooter to the family has yet to be confirmed by police.
The Maine State Police major crimes unit is investigating, and further charges are expected.
