A Waterville man was arrested Sunday after leading police on a mileslong chase from Waterville to Augusta on Interstate 95, police said.

The driver, Christopher Poirier, 38, was charged with eluding an officer, reckless conduct with a dangerous weapon, aggravated criminal mischief, theft by unauthorized taking, driving to endanger, operating with a suspended license and criminal speed, Maj. Jason Longley of the Waterville Police Department said in a statement Monday.

Poirier was being held Monday at the Kennebec County jail in Augusta with bail set at $10,000 following his initial appearance at the Capital Judicial Center. Bail had initially been set at $2,560, according to police.

Around 8:30 a.m. Sunday, Waterville officers responded to the Dunkin’ on College Avenue for a report of a stolen black Chevrolet Monte Carlo, police said.

Officers located a vehicle that matched the description on Kennedy Memorial Drive and tried unsuccessfully to stop it, police said, as it fled south on I-95 toward Augusta.

On the interstate, officers deployed a tire deflation device but the vehicle continued on with partially deflated tires.

Maine State Police troopers joined the chase, which left the interstate at Exit 113 in Augusta, police said.

State police used a “precision immobilization technique” to stop the vehicle. In the maneuver, a police cruiser is used to hit a vehicle being pursued in such a way as to stop it.

Poirier left the vehicle and fled on foot, police said. Officers took him into custody shortly after on Old Belgrade Road.

During the chase, police said Poirier struck a Waterville Police Department cruiser, completely disabling it.

“The investigation is still active, but we do not expect additional charges going forward,” Waterville police said.
