Police on Wednesday identified the victim of a Monday afternoon shooting at Moark egg farm as Manuel Adame, 57, of Lewiston.

Relatives in Texas were located Monday and told of his death, according to Maine State Police spokesman Stephen McCausland.

Adame had been an employee at the egg farm for several years, McCausland said.

Police said the worker who fired the shot was 44-year-old Michael Warbin of Franklin, Conn.

A Moark spokeswoman said Tuesday that, according to police, the shot was fired by a pest control professional working at the facility under contract. According to McCausland, that worker — Warbin — was shooting a .22-caliber rifle to kill rodents and stray chickens inside one of the farm’s chicken barns that was being cleaned out.

Moark egg farm, formerly owned by Jack DeCoster, is now owned by Land O’Lakes.

Warbin is not an employee of Moark, but was working at the farm under contract, according to a Moark spokeswoman.

Police said Warbin has been interviewed and has cooperated with the investigation.

The State Medical Examiner’s Office said Adame died from a gunshot wound to the chest and neck. State police are continuing to investigate the circumstances of the shooting and have been consulting with the Maine Attorney General’s Office.

As of Wednesday, no charges had been filed. The federal Occupational Health and Safety Administration is also investigating the shooting.

Editor’s note: This story has been corrected to clarify information attributed to a Moark spokeswoman that should have been attributed to McCausland.
