Three arrested in Saturday night stabbings in Lewiston

LEWISTON — Two men and a juvenile were arrested Monday in connection with stabbings Saturday night that landed two men in intensive care at a local hospital.

Sidney Lord, 19, of 2 Toll St., was charged shortly after midnight Sunday with elevated aggravated assault. Clayton Chapman, 20, of 11 Horton St., was charged at 12:30 p.m. Monday with elevated aggravated assault, criminal mischief and violation of a protection order. A juvenile was also arrested in connection with the case, but police would not release the  name or age.

Detective Roland Godbout of the Lewiston Police Department declined to release many details about the case, which remains under investigation. He said the incident occurred around 11:30 p.m. Saturday at the corner of Howe and Walnut streets. He said the three suspects and two victims all knew each other.

"They were all familiar with each other," Godbout said. "They all knew each other and didn't have good feelings toward one another."

Godbout was not sure about the ages of the victims, but said that one is in their 20s and the other in their 30s. Both victims remained in the intensive care unit of an area hospital as of Monday, and the younger of the two underwent surgery Monday afternoon, Godbout said.

Get your facts straight

Get your facts straight Erika,married really ??
A statement from his neighbor, Justin Lord, 21, of 2 Towle St., prompted police to secure a warrant for Bussiere's arrest that day. Lord told police that Bussiere had threatened him with a handgun that morning. Police never found a handgun and kept the case open while investigating the truthfulness of Lord's statement.A day before the standoff, Lord's brother Sidney, 19, told police Bussiere had threatened him with a handgun while he was in his truck. Police searched Bussiere's truck and found no handgun!!!! These boys lie and are in trouble and locked up all the time.If Dan stuck a gun the the faces of these boys on two diffrent days why didnt the police find the gun???? Because there was no gun ... Maybe if we just put all the thugs of Lew & Aub in the jail yard give them all weapons and tell them to go on and have fun getting even with each other ,who ever is left let the police shoot,then we can stop feeding them and housing them every other week.

Personally I know Sidney and

Personally I know Sidney and the Sidney I know talks shit but doesn't back his shit up. He is not the Violent type. This whole fight was over Kiery. Mikey Gallo and JR are both her baby daddies. She is the reason it went this far. She let it happen. She liked having them fight over her. If it was me I wouldn't have let it go that far. Because anyone that actually knows what happened wouldn't be running there mouths. Did any of you people know that it all started at a lame ass party. And then Mikey flipped out and chased then out of the house with a 2x4? He was swinging at them. He started the whole thing. It is bullshit that he isn't in jail with them. And by the way if Mikey Gallo really got seriously hurt then explain to me why he is walking around town like nothing ever happened? He's the one that should be in Jail. He instigated the whole fight. And his Baby mama ain't any better. She should be in there with him. She instigated it from the getgo.Thats all I have to say right now.

I Completely Agree With You

I Completely Agree With You ZKot There Was Alot Of People That Just Stood There And Watched The Younger Victim Getting Stabbed..Theres Also The Taxi Cabs That Had To Stop Becasue They Were In The Middle Of The Street N They Did Nothing And Also Some Of The Cars That Went By..It Also Pisses Me Off That A Couple People Video Taped The Hole Thing Happen But Yet Dont Wanna Step Up And Turn The Video In So Further Action Can Be Taken.. And It Also Further Pisses Me Off That People Ran Off Once They Seen The Cops Come Because They Them Selfs Are Introuble With The Law N Yeah It Is Crazy That They Had So Many Cop Cars There That Were Just Standing Around ..Hopefully They Do Get All Charged As Adults They New What There Intentions Were When They Went There That Night An Lured Them Outta The House

I am not sticking up for them. If u read my whole comment u woulda read they need to do time for their crime. I just couldnt believe it when I heard about it yesterday before it hit the papers. Like I said the 17 yr old is one of my bestfriends boys and he is exactly 2 days younger then my daughter. Sorry again

What is this state coming to

What is this state coming to when a protection order cannot even be enforced by the local PD. Sid Lord and Clayton Chapman have a long history of Violent offenses yet up until the other night they were still running the streets. As for them having Jobs, so what Since when does having employment make someone an upstanding citizen, that just means they have more money to pour into Drugs and Alcohol. I personally do not blame the PD in this I blame the courts. They get arrested and then the courts just let them off with a slap on the wrist. Maybe this time they will do their jobs and put those boys away for a very long time including the The underage kid. He should be charged as an adult this was a premeditated crime they had every intention of stabbing the 2 victims in question . They had repeatedly harassed the victims and their families for going on a month . The police had been called each time and nothing was done. Maybe the Parents of these kids should be held responsible for not taking the belt to the little bastards when it would have done some good . This city is seeing a drastic decline in law and order. There is no respect for anything amongst the younger generation and unless these kids are held accountable for their actions there never will be

what makes me angry is how

what makes me angry is how "Everyone" handled the situation , I was there , lemme start here , to the crowd of people that stood there and watched the younger kid get stabbed multiple times and did nothing , what if it was you was being stabbed , and everyone around stood there and watched it happen , is someone being stabbed so awe inspiring you cant do the human thing and "Help' someone out ... Christ Im 1 guy and didnt hesitate to chase them off, to the 5 cops who responded to the scene to stare at the stabbed guys , there was no need for that many cops to be right there , had they drove down different streets , Im sure they would have been caught allmost imediately, cops have "radio's" , all 5 cops did not need to be there to get descriptions ... , Again my issue , this happened on sat nite , VIOLENT OFFENDERS were on the loose in lewiston , and no one was notified , no press release , no letting the people of Lewiston know they might be in Danger , what if someone else had gotten hurt ..... , again I wanna point out that one of them had protection orders out against him and had been terrorizing these people for weeks , complaints on record at LPD will verify this has been on going for allmost a month , so if Im to understand this correctly , det Godbout CMVCTF (Central maine violent crimes taskforce) lemme ask ya this , if youd a been on the ball would this have happened? havent these people been an issue for some time now , how is it VIOLENT offenders keep walking , or wait now that more people have been hurt , maybe finally someone might get the hint , glad to see my tax dollars at work.

I know all of the people

I know all of the people that are involved in this; the three so-called "men" and the 2 people that got stabbed. They should put the whole story in here to show everyone what scumbags these three "men" are. They loured the 2 men out of the apartment they were in by destroying a jeep that belongs to a relative. That's premeditated. I am very disappointed about the outcome of the charges. It should have been premeditated attempted murder. The youngest out of the stab victims has had 2 surgeries and he had to have a feeding tube. The areas in which they stabbed him, could have killed him. I don't want to release any information that I could get in trouble for doing so, so I will not say where. As of today, they are still in the ICU. The 17- year old little boy who was apart of it, is out and walking the streets. As far as I know with little to no consequences for what he did. I do not think that is right. I'm sure he won't get away with everything, for I know karma or revenge will get him.

Apparently Tweety doesnt

Apparently Tweety doesnt know This kid too well, It wasnt him that got the gun pointed at him @ 5 in the morning it was his other scumbag brother, Justin Lord. Instead of going out stabbing people maybe these guys should work more than they do, if they even do, make some money and get out of these trouble spots like real human beings usually do. These are the people that give all of Lewiston a bad name.. Lewiston is not all like this just the scumbags like these kids

winterbear- I know Sidney

winterbear- I know Sidney Lord personally and that thing that happened on holland street was the guy that committed suicides fault. Sidney was walking to work at 5 in the am. He was minding his own business and to turn around to have a gun in his face. I would like to know how that was his fault. I also want to say he does work for labor ready. I know him and his family personally and they are good people. Why Sidney would pull a hanous crime like this is beyond me. I also know the juvinile that was involved and it never once crossed my mind he would do something like this. No I am not gonna disclose is name but he is only 17. He is 2 days younger then my daughter and his mother is one of my best friends. I feel bad something like this happened and yes they should pay the time for doing the crime. I commend the Lewiston Police for catching them before someone else got hurt or even killed.

You said that Sidney was

You said that Sidney was minding his own business and had a gun in his face?

There was NO GUN ever found to back up this statement. I do NOT believe Dan did this.

God Rest Dan's soul. May he be resting in peace.

You don't know them too

You don't know them too well. These things do not happen to people who mind their own business. Do you realize that most people never get into a street altercation in their entire lives, yet this family happens to be at the center of it all the time? Mom, you're being hoodwinked.

Imagine if the Lewiston

Imagine if the Lewiston Police Department had done due diligence when the Bussiere shooting happened, maybe this would not have. It is truly amazing that the Chief is still in office, his incompetence has been demonstrated many times in just the last few months. Isn't it time to cut him loose and go with a professional? Maybe the lame duck council can address this tonight in secret session.

five POS. Too bad they

five POS. Too bad they didn't all kill each other and have one suicide. Too many lazy young people bleeding the system and having too much time to do nothing. Get a job and maybe you won't have all day to get in trouble.
