WINDHAM, Maine (AP) - A Maine homeowner held a fugitive at gunpoint after finding him hiding in a shed on the property.
Daniel Spooner, 34, was held at gunpoint Friday morning until authorities arrived, Maine News Center reported.
Spooner was found hiding in Otter Brook stables around 8 a.m. and was taken to Cumberland County jail without incident.
According to police, Spooner fled a crash after a high-speed chase with a child in his car Thursday night.
Spooner has been charged with eluding a police officer, leaving the scene of a personal injury crash and endangering the welfare of a child.
Spooner was being held without bail Friday and is not expected to appear in court until Monday. It is unclear whether he has an attorney to speak for him.
