PRESQUE ISLE, Maine — A Presque Isle man has died following a standoff with police Sunday evening.
Jacob Poitraw, 25, was wanted by Presque Isle police for questioning regarding a road rage incident, where he allegedly threatened two people with an assault rifle on Saturday, Presque Isle police Chief Laurie Kelly said.
Sgt. Tyler Cote saw Poitraw driving on June 5 and tried to stop his vehicle. Poitraw refused to stop and led Cote on a chase through Presque Isle, ramming Cote’s cruiser several times, Kelly said.
The chase ended at the corner of Main and Davis streets Sunday evening at around 7:15 p.m., near Freshies convenience store. After Poitraw struck and disabled Cote’s cruiser, Cote shot Poitraw.
Poitraw later died at a local hospital.
