AUBURN, Maine — Ahmed Duale, 27, of Lewiston was arrested Sunday afternoon after he led police on a high-speed pursuit that started in Auburn and ended in New Hampshire.
According to Maine State Police, Duale was identified as a suspect in an armed robbery in Auburn earlier in the day. The agency said it received several calls from a man who was later identified himself as Duale as he traveled south on Interstate 95.
State police from Maine and New Hampshire said Duale evaded cruisers on I-95, traveling at high speeds and weaving in and out of lanes of travel. A spokesperson for the New Hampshire State Police said Duale reportedly traveled the wrong way on the interstate and crossed the center median when he crossed the border.
Duale was taken into custody without incident in New Hampshire after he stopped the car in Greenland and was then brought to the Rockingham County Jail. He faces multiple charges in New Hampshire.
Maine police said charged Duale with eluding, aggravated driving to endanger, criminal speed, reckless conduct with a dangerous weapon, as well as armed robbery.
