LEWISTON — A man suspected in a Massachusetts homicide was arrested in Lewiston Monday along with a woman described as his accomplice.

The U.S. Marshal’s Service arrested 35-year-old Michael Thompson on a charge of being a fugitive from justice in connection with a homicide in Brockton in September.

Police said Thompson and 25-year-old Dayana Slade were found at a home on Howe Street after marshals and local investigators went to the home about noon in search of them.

Slade was also charged with being a fugitive from justice. In warrants out of Massachusetts, Slade is charged with being an accomplice to the homicide after the fact.

Both suspects are from Dorchester, Massachusetts, police said.

Police said when the Maine Violent Offender Task Force conducted a forced entry into the apartment at 17 Howe St. just before noon, they discovered both suspects hiding in a bedroom.

Investigators at the scene searched a vehicle linked to Thompson and Slade. Police said in the vehicle, they found drug paraphernalia and three firearms.

One of the firearms, police said, had been reported stolen from Auburn.

Inside the vehicle, police also found three juveniles who were named in warrants on charges of assault and burglary. The three teens were taken into custody, but their status was unknown Monday night.

Police said an investigation into Thompson’s whereabouts had led them to the three-story apartment on Howe Street.

According to the Marshals Service, Thompson had been sought in connection with a homicide in Brockton where a 40-year-old man was shot to death in late September.

Thompson had recently served prison time for manslaughter, but had been paroled in 2022, police said.

Police from Massachusetts and Lewiston assisted with the arrests. U.S. Marshals investigators from Massachusetts and Maine were involved in the capture.

One of the main duties of the U.S. Marshals Service is to track down and arrest violent fugitives around the country.

“We will go through doors over fences and leave no stone unturned in our relentless pursuit to bring fugitives to justice here in Maine,” said U.S. Marshal Ryan Guay, supervisory deputy for the District of Maine. “There’s nowhere to hide.”
