Police arrested three people and seized $30,000 worth of drugs in Livermore Falls on Monday.

The Androscoggin County Sheriff’s Office determined that a home invasion was underway after a 911 call was suddenly dropped.

Police say three men forced their way into the home and assaulted a resident with weapons.

One suspect was detained at the scene while two others ran away but were later located.

Police took 25-year-old Daniel Gala, 25-year-old Joshua Washington and 25-year-old KaShaun Santiago into custody and charged them with burglary.

They also face drug charges after officers found crack cocaine and about $8,000 in suspected drug proceeds at a home nearby.
