AUGUSTA (AP) — An Augusta man has been charged with throwing bleach in a 60-year-old woman’s face after claiming to be a police officer.

Authorities say 44-year-old Charles Cortright had an argument with the woman on Monday night.

He left the area and returned a short time later. Police say he knocked on the woman’s door and when she asked who was knocking, he said he was an officer. Police tell the Kennebec Journal she opened the door and Cortright threw bleach in her face. She required hospitalization.

Cortright also allegedly punched a 56-year-old man in connection with the same incident.

The suspect and the alleged victims know each other.

Cortright was held without bail Tuesday on charges including aggravated assault and impersonating a public servant.
