AUBURN – A Lewiston man convicted in June of stalking a 14-year-old girl, then charged last month with raping a woman, may face two more charges.

This time, the allegation involves an 11-year-old girl.

Assistant District Attorney Deborah Potter Cashman told a Superior Court judge Friday that Horow Omah Hagi, 43, is expected to be charged with assault and criminal restraint for allegedly grabbing an 11-year-old girl and attempting to drag her to his apartment.

According to Cashman, Hagi grabbed the young girl after she asked him for change for a dollar. The girl was able to get away, run home and report the incident, Cashman said.

Cashman shared that information with Superior Court Justice Thomas E. Delahanty II in order to convince him to keep Hagi in jail on $10,000 cash bail.

Hagi was in Androscoggin County Superior Court Friday morning to be arraigned on a charge of gross sexual assault. He is accused of following a local woman to her apartment on July 10, forcing his way inside, then raping her as she begged him to stop.

Claiming the sex was consensual, Hagi pleaded not guilty to the charge, and Justice Delahanty agreed to keep him in jail on $25,000 property bail or $10,000 in cash.

Hagi’s arrest for the rape charge came less than a month after he pleaded guilty to stalking a 14-year-old newspaper delivery girl. He was convicted of stalking on June 24 and sentenced to two days in jail, followed by one year of probation.

Hagi has lived in Lewiston for eight months and most recently was renting an apartment on Knox Street, according to court records.

If Hagi is charged for the incident involving the 11-year-old, he will face a total of four charges: violating probation, gross sexual assault, assault and criminal restraint. If convicted, he could go to prison for up to 40 years.

Other cases

Nineteen other people were arraigned on felony charges Friday morning in Androscoggin County Superior Court. Below are the dispositions of the cases that the Sun Journal has been following.

• Robert Cyr, the 35-year-old Sabattus man accused of lying to police about his knowledge of the December 2002 fatal accident on Sabattus Lake, pleaded not guilty to charges of hindering apprehension or prosecution.

He was released without bail, but he will have to pay $5,000 if he doesn’t appear for his next court date. He also was barred from having contact with his brother-in-law, Steven Davies, who was driving the snowmobile that hit and killed Robert Levesque.

Cyr’s trial is scheduled for September.

• Serial rapist Ronald Leno pleaded not guilty to a charge of aggravated assault. Leno, a repeat sex offender who moved to Durham two years ago after serving time in Massachusetts, is charged with beating up a man on June 12.

Leno allegedly attacked Paul Pugliese with a club after Pugliese went to his house on Meadow Road to warn him to stay away from his family.

Justice Delahanty set Leno’s bail at $7,500 in cash or $50,000 in property. A date for his trial has not been set.

• A local couple facing a long list of sex-related charges pleaded not guilty Friday. James and Stacie Fisk of Lewiston are being held in Androscoggin County Jail on $7,500 in cash or $15,000 in property.

The Fisks are accused of sexually abusing a local 14-year-old girl and participating in a local child pornography ring. James Fisk faces a total of 14 counts. His wife faces 11.

As conditions of their bail, the couple are barred from having contact with children under 18 and from having access to the Internet. Despite opposition from the state, Delahanty gave the couple permission to write letters to each other while they are in jail.
