Maine man arrested in NH after 2 state chase

HAMPTON, N.H. (AP) - A 27-year-old Maine man could be facing charges in two states after a high-speed chase that police say left seven damaged cars in its wake.

Kyle Ellis of Portland was stopped just south of the Hampton, N.H., toll plaza late Saturday night after a state trooper forced his vehicle to spin out.

Police reports say Maine State Police troopers tried to stop the car on Interstate 95, but the car, later determined to be driven by Ellis, refused to stop.

Police say the other vehicles were damaged when they drove over stop sticks designed to puncture the tires of Ellis's car.
