Maine State Police arrested a juvenile male Saturday in connection with the homicide of 14-year-old Brooke McLaughlin, whose death has shocked this small town in the Belgrade Lakes region.

McLaughlin was found deceased in her home by her mother just after 6 p.m. Monday, investigators said. The state Office of Chief Medical Examiner determined her death was a homicide.

On Saturday morning, State Police detectives arrested a boy who lives in Maine and charged him with murder, said Shannon Moss, spokesperson for the Maine Department of Public Safety.

A seventh-grader at Maranacook Community Middle School, McLaughlin and the boy knew each other, Moss said in a written statement. The boy was taken to Long Creek Youth Development Center in South Portland.

Police were not releasing the boy’s name or address, or any further details of the investigation on Saturday, Moss said.
