RICHMOND — Police are looking for a Bowdoinham man they believe assaulted a woman and young child over the weekend.

Richmond Police Chief Scott MacMaster said Leo Caron, 43, is wanted in connection with the assaults, which took place on Caron’s Way shortly before 7 p.m. Saturday.

MacMaster said a warrant has not yet been issued for Caron.

“We have probable cause for an arrest and a probation violation,” MacMaster said.

The incident was initially reported as a family fight. Responding officers determined an adult woman and a 2-year-old child had been assaulted, MacMaster said. Neither suffered serious injuries, MacMaster said. An ambulance was not required.

According to the Department of Corrections website, Caron is 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighs about 150 pounds and has brown eyes and brown hair.

MacMaster asked anyone with information on Caron’s whereabouts to call Richmond Police at 737-8518.
