AUGUSTA -- One of the two men accused in a May 2008 Pittston home invasion pleaded not guilty this morning to 14 charges.

Daniel L. Fortune, 21, of Augusta pleaded not guilty to charges including aggravated attempted murder, elevated aggravated assault and conspiracy to commit robbery.

The two elevated aggravated assault charges were new accusations a Kennebec County grand jury included in an indictment earlier this month.

The Pittston home invasion on May 27, 2008, left former state legislator William Guerrette and his daughter Nicole injured by machete attacks.

Fortune's charges were also connected to a November 2007 theft of the Guerrette home on Stoney Acres Road.

Fortune is facing charges along with his foster brother, Leo R. Hylton, 18, who reportedly confessed to wielding the machete the night of the attack.
