Maine suspect hitches ride — to pokey

NORWAY, Maine (AP) — A teenager from Waterford who was wanted by police flagged down a car to get away, but it turned out to be an unmarked cruiser, which took him straight to jail.

Monday's episode began when 19-year-old Travis Horan allegedly gave someone else's name and then bolted from police after being stopped for speeding in Norway. Police from four agencies searched the area but came up short.

About an hour later, Horan was picked up by a Norway detective in an unmarked cruiser and arrested. He was charged with operating without a license, lying about his identity and violating bail conditions. He was also held on two outstanding warrants.
