🕵‍♂️ Suspect Wanted in Edgecomb Homicide Arrested in California 🕵‍♂️

The Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit Central have arrested a suspect in connection with the murder of 34-year-old William “Nate” Robinson of Austinville, Virgina, whose body was discovered inside a trash barrel in the Schmid Preserve on the Old County Road in Edgecomb on December 3, 2024.

The Office of Chief Medical Examiner in Augusta determined that Robinson died of a gunshot wound and ruled the manner of death a homicide. Following an investigation, detectives executed a search warrant at 57 Conant Road in Turner on December 12, 2024, where evidence discovered at the location linked 26-year-old Luke Krott of Edgecomb to the murder, and an arrest warrant was issued for him. Krott, who had been staying with his parents in Edgecomb, had left the state but with the help of the San Diego Police Department’s Fugitive Task Force, FBI, and the U.S. Marshals Service Krott was located Monday evening, January 6, 2025, on a sailboat at a marina in San Diego, California. Krott is currently being held at the San Diego Central Jail on a fugitive from justice charge pending the extradition process to Maine, where he will face a Murder charge.

The Maine State Police would like to thank our local and federal law enforcement partners for their assistance in locating and apprehending Krott. This is an active and ongoing investigation, and no further information is available at this time.

East flank of the Palisades Fire is RIPPING.

This is my view from 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica. This thing is moving towards Brentwood area and if these winds pick up as advertised tonight we’re looking at potential risk to the Sepulveda Pass, Bel Air, etc if it keeps pushing east.

Nonstop sirens, as you can hear in the video.

Prayers for the retired Fulton County sheriff's deputy who was shot chasing a robbery suspect. 🙏🏽

Georgia: A retired Fulton County sheriff's deputy was shot, and a suspect was killed as gunfire was exchanged following a possible robbery in Atlanta's West End neighborhood on Monday night.

Fulton County Sheriff Patrick "Pat" Labat said that two people waved down Lt. Gerald Johnson, an off-duty Fulton County sheriff's deputy who was working an extra job nearby, and told him that one of them had been shot at the Easy Rental location off Lee Street.

Johnson ran toward the alleged shooter and encountered the suspect, who had an assault-style weapon. Johnson shot and killed the suspect after being shot in the right hand by the suspect, Labat said. His injuries are considered non-life-threatening and Johnson is recovering at Grady Memorial Hospital.
