INDIAN TOWNSHIP - A Calais man is dead after being shot by law enforcement officials on the Passamaquoddy Tribe's reservation in far eastern Maine.

The attorney general's office says 40-year-old Douglas Kelley was fatally shot at about 6:30 p.m. Monday at the tribe's Indian Township reservation.

A spokesman says officer Alexander Nicholas II of the Indian Township Police Department and Scott Francis, a warden with the Passamaquoddy Warden Service, were involved in the shooting. The spokesman refused to give any details about the incident.

Tribal Gov. Billy Nicholas says Kelley was armed at the time of the shooting, which took place outside a house in a neighborhood subdivision.
