Augusta area [Hallowell] -- Assault        41-year-old pro-abortionist Robert Bachand punched 61-year-old pro-lifer Ronald Stauble outside state Republican headquarters as he held a picture of an aborted preborn child. First, he swore at the pro-lifers and tried to grab their signs. Although Stauble suffered broken glasses and an obvious cut above his eye, Bachand denied touching him.        Mike Laberge.
