Neighbor’s Gunshot Death Leads to Arrest | Portland Maine News
from Portland Maine News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Fifty-eight-year-old Keith Brunelle is now facing murder charges after police found his neighbor, forty-eight-year-old James Smith, dead from a gunshot wound in their Brunswick mobile home park. The incident began when police responded to gunshots at Brunelle’s home just after midnight on September first — where they found Smith dead and arrested Brunelle for a bail violation. He was later released but not charged with homicide. An autopsy confirmed the death as a homicide, prompting detectives to obtain an arrest warrant for Brunelle, who was re-arrested Friday morning. Court docs point to a Colt revolver in the shooting, though key details remain sealed. Brunelle has lived at the address for over 18 years. This marks the second neighbor-on-neighbor homicide in Brunswick in five months — echoing a gruesome April case where a man allegedly stabbed, dismembered, and burned his neighbor.
