A 45-year-old man shot last month near Portland’s Oxford Street homeless shelter has died.
Portland police said Wednesday that Jack Wilson died around 7 p.m. Tuesday from injuries he sustained during a shooting on June 26. Wilson’s death is now considered a homicide, and Portland police said it will be up to the Maine Attorney General’s office to decide whether to file charges against the suspect, who has not been identified.
The shooting is one of several violent incidents in Portland’s Bayside neighborhood that havew shaken local residents already concerned about fighting, open-air drug use and other illegal behavior.
