WILTON – A local man was arrested yesterday afternoon after he allegedly threatened another Wilton resident with an axe during a dispute.

Korey Lizine, 48 of Wilton, was arrested and charged with criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon, a Class C felony, following an incident reported on Main Street Wednesday afternoon.

According to Wilton Police Chief Heidi Wilcox, the incident was reported Wednesday at approximately 2:50 p.m. at a Main Street address. A 44-year-old Wilton resident, and previous tenant, reportedly had a dispute with Lizine outside the residence. The woman told police that Lizine picked up an axe and threatened her with it.

Officer Ethan Kyes responded and, after investigating, arrested Lizine without incident.

Lizine was taken to Franklin County Detention Center, where bail was set at $1,500 cash. He has not had an initial appearance in court yet.

  1. Here we go again…..No who what where and very little when. When the police arrested this man did he have the axe with him ? Did the police find an axe in his possession ? Did the woman owe him money ? Why did he have an axe ? Was he working around clearing weeds or such ? Did the woman owe him money..Oh wait I already said that…Why isn’t the woman’s name in this story? This innocent man’s name is here where is his accusers name ? Time to cut the crap with these kind of Bulldog Headlines or tell the entire story with all parties named unless they are underage…And what is this about judging this man because he has a tee shirt on on a hot aftenoon in Wilton Maine.

  2. Dang!, All this time I been using a string trimmer for the weeds in my yard and I should have been using an ax.

  3. Beware the ‘Rush To Judgement’ for some day it may be you that others are judging in a Bulldog Headline.

  4. AMEN the lion roars the eagle soars! How about news with out judgment and no finger pointing… making the media and judgmental onlookers the judge and jury! What happened to reporting all the facts and all the sides… no one is guilty just bc they are charged!

  5. Roaring Eagle, maybe I meant it was ‘appropriate attire’ for a hot summer afternoon, who knows? Where did your thoughts on my comment jump to, speaking of rushing to judgment? And when did anyone say this guy is guilty?

  6. Who knows what really happend (LOL, Captain…)…but yup, journalism is LONG dead. Ain’t gonna find it unless you dig really, really deep in other places.
