ELLSWORTH, Maine — Hancock County police have arrested two people in connection with an apparent home invasion in February during which a 60-year-old Stonington woman was assaulted.
Morris Young, 25, of Bar Harbor and Catherine Carton, 33, of Sedgwick were arrested last Friday and are facing charges of Class A robbery and Class B burglary, both felony offenses.
Detective Alan Brown with the Hancock County Sheriff’s Department declined to provide additional details on Monday except to say that police believe the pair were attempting to steal prescription narcotics.
The incident happened around 5:40 a.m. on Feb. 9 at Stonington Manor on Route 15A. At the time, police said a man entered the apartment and reportedly struck the resident several times in the face before fleeing in a car. The victim was treated at Blue Hill Memorial Hospital and later released.
Police credited the public with helping them investigate the incident but are still seeking additional information. Anyone with information on the robbery is asked to call Detective Alan Brown at 667-7575 or Detective Stephen McFarland at 667-4621.
Unbelievable to see something like this happen in my community.
I love the black and white stripes I didnt know anyone used those anymore, awsomeness!!!!
Black and white stripes are still favored by skunks.
It takes a brave man to strike a 60 year old woman. not.
Kate,don’t you think you might want to grow up?!! I feel the most sympathy for your poor children who have to deal with this!Maybe its time for your family to stop bailing you out,and you have to finally have to pay some consequences.
I also, think Kate needs to grow up. But Kate tends to blame everyone but Kate, for her problems.
poor old biddy, they should chain him to the floor and let her hit him a couple times in the face with a brick or a hammer…. Flatten that big doppey nose out so he can’t snort any more trash.
These two need to go home….go out by the old rock wall and get stoned. i would LOVE to bounce big STONES off their heads !
GREAT work Hancock County S.O.!!!!! The whole island is breathing a lot easier!!! I hope that these 2 LOSERS spend a long time in a cold cell thinking about what buttheads they are!! Good thing that you look good in black & white MORRIS as we are ALL hoping that you will be wearing that color for a long time!!!
I’m so sick of seeing people smile for their mug shots!

Home invasions need to get severe sentences to put a stop to this. Don’t let her innocent look fool you.
