PALMYRA — A man who was seriously injured in a stabbing in Palmyra earlier this month has died, according to an official.

Todd Parsons, 48, succumbed to his injuries on Oct. 18, a week after the stabbing, Shannon Moss, public information officer for the Maine Department of Public Safety, said Thursday.

Parsons’ body was taken to the Chief Medical Examiner’s Office in Augusta for an autopsy.

The official cause and manner of death were not released Thursday.

Stab at 482 Madawaska Road Reported just before 3 a.m. on October 11.

The victim, who was unidentified at the time, was taken to Sebasticook Valley Hospital in Pittsfield and then to Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor, where he was listed in critical condition.

At the time, Maine State Police described the stabbing as an “incident” that led to the road closure. The road was closed for most of the day as detectives interviewed people and evidence response technicians processed the scene.

The Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit and the Somerset County Sheriff’s Office were investigating the stabbing.
