Police have confirmed Friday the death of a man Monday on Flagg Street in Augusta was a homicide.

Shannon Moss, the public information officer for the Maine Department of Public Safety, said in a news release Friday that Billyjack Curtis, 51, was killed by a gunshot wound at about 11:15 p.m. The Office of Chief Medical Examiner conducted an autopsy and confirmed the manner of death was a homicide.

There is no ongoing threat to the public, Moss said. She did not say whether anyone had been arrested in connection with the death.

The investigation, led by Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit – Central, is ongoing, she said.

At 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, a Maine State Police evidence collection vehicle was still parked on the street, along with several other state police cruisers and trucks. Police tape blocked access on each end of the street.

The vehicles and activity at the scene Tuesday morning appeared to center on the duplex at 8-10 Flagg St., a brick building owned by Community Housing of Maine, the state’s largest supportive housing provider. The building has four one-bedroom apartments.
