A short high-speed chase Tuesday afternoon outside of Brooklet ended with a PIT maneuver and the arrest of a man for a stolen vehicle and aggravated assault against a peace officer.
Brooklet Police Lieutenant Brandi Stock said the department received a call at 4:20 p.m. from a concerned citizen about a man in a red pick-up truck who was driving into oncoming traffic. The caller said the truck had pulled into the Enmark store on Highway 80 and North Cromley Road in Brooklet.
