A man has been charged with murder after four people were shot dead in a Maine home and three others were shot and wounded on a highway 25 miles away, police said.

Joseph Eaton, 34, of Bowdoin, was charged with four counts of murder on Tuesday, but police declined to discuss a possible motive. Mr Eaton was expected to appear in court this week.
