Three Portland residents were indicted today in connection with a burglary at a home in Gorham on Nov. 10.

Cassandra Farris, 19; Zachary Farris, 21; and Nicholas Young, 20, face felony charges of burglary and theft. They were indicted by a grand jury at Cumberland County Superior Court.

Police say the three robbed a home at Hackmatack Way, and the homeowner called for help. Cassandra Farris and Zachary Farris were arrested after their car was stopped on Fort Hill Road. Young allegedly ran away, but was captured a short while later.

Cassandra Farris faces a misdemeanor charge of violating conditions of release. She also faces felony theft and burglary charges for an incident in Windham on Sept. 9.
