Man Pleads Guilty in Shooting Rampage That Killed 2

Anthony Lord, of Houlton, appeared in a Rockland courtroom Wednesday to plead guilty

A Maine man who killed two people and wounded three others in a two-county shooting rampage is due to be sentenced next month on two counts of murder, two charges of attempted murder and other charges. 

Anthony Lord, of Houlton, appeared in a Rockland courtroom Wednesday to plead guilty. Assistant Attorney General Leane Zainea says there's no plea agreement in the case. 

Authorities say Lord went on a shooting rampage in July 2015 in northern Maine. 

Police say 58-year-old Kevin Tozier and 22-year-old Kyle Hewitt died of gunshot wounds. 

Lord also was accused of kidnapping Hewitt's girlfriend, 22-year-old Brittany Irish, and shooting and wounding her 55-year-old mother, Kim Irish, at her home in Benedicta. Two others were wounded.
