LOWELL, Mass. -- A truck driver was arrested and charged in connection with a violent home invasion in Chelmsford early Monday morning.

NewsCenter 5's Jim Boyd reported that Adam Lane, 42, was arraigned in Lowell District Court on Monday.

"He was dressed in black head-to-toe with a mask. He was wearing gloves. He was in possession of two very large hunting knives," Chelmsford police Deputy Chief Scott Ubele said.

Lane faces several charges in connection with the Pine Hill Road incident, including home invasion, assault with intent to rape, entering a home while armed, attempted murder and kidnapping.

"I am terrified and angry. I really am angry that somebody would dare do something like that," neighbor Jo Tambo said.

Police said Lane, of Jonesville, N.C., has no known ties to the homeowners. He is a long-range truck driver who delivers garden supplies along the East Coast.

"We received a 911 call from the state police for an intruder in the home, and upon our officers' arrival, they found the homeowners struggling with the suspect," Ubele said.

Lane was ordered held until Aug. 6 when he returns to court for a dangerousness hearing. Officials along the East Coast are investigating whether unsolved incidents in their communities can be linked to the Chelmsford home invasion.
