Teen Charged in Houlton Death Held Without Bail

HOULTON, Maine (AP) - An 18-year-old man is being held without bail on charges that he and another teen killed a 61-year-old Houlton man.

Reginald Dobbins and a 16-year-old boy, both from Houlton, appeared Monday in Aroostook County Superior Court on murder charges. The younger suspect’s name and details about his appearance were not released because of his age. A court official says a judge ordered Dobbins held without bail.

The teens have been held in county jail since their arrest Friday. A spokesman for the state attorney general’s office says records about the case are impounded.

They are charged with killing Keith Suitter, whose body was found inside his mobile home on March 1.

No details of the death have been disclosed. It could not be determined if the suspects had lawyers.
