On the morning of July 30, 2023, a shooting on Knox Street in Lewiston, Maine, left two men dead. Twenty-three-year-old Keyt Hussein was sitting in a parked car when 30-year-old Mohamed Sheikh approached on foot around 10:18 a.m. As Hussein tried to get out of the vehicle, Sheikh reportedly opened fire with a pistol and struck him multiple times.

A passenger in the back seat, 24-year-old Mohamed Liban of Lewiston, then extended a pistol out the rear window and shot Sheikh, also striking him multiple times. Emergency responders found one man dead at the scene and another later died at Central Maine Medical Center. Post-mortem exams ruled both deaths homicides.

The Maine Attorney General’s Office reviewed the incident and concluded Liban had acted in defense of Hussein; no charges were filed and no arrests were made. Does anyone in the Lewiston area have information about the days leading up to the dispute or witnessed the events on Knox Street that morning?
