LIVERMORE FALLS – A Livermore man was arrested Thursday on a charge of stalking after a woman ran into the Livermore Falls Police Station saying someone was chasing her and allegedly threatening to kill her, police said.
Dispatcher Sherry Given saw a man running toward the station and took the woman inside the dispatch area and locked the doors until police could return to the station, Police Chief Ernest Steward Jr. said.
Both Steward and officer Steve Gould were on the road.
Steward said he talked with Jeffrey Wright, 45, of Livermore outside the station while Gould interviewed the woman inside.
The woman had been at a car wash in Jay and the two, who are acquaintances, got into a verbal argument, Steward said. The woman got in her car and drove to the Livermore Falls station and Wright allegedly pursued her, he said.
After an investigation, Wright was arrested on the misdemeanor charge.
He posted $1,000 cash bail at the Livermore Falls station, Steward said, and is scheduled to appear April 13 in Lewiston District Court.
