Patrick Whittle And David SharpIn this image taken from video, law enforcement personnel converge on a suspect, who was arrested earlier in the day and then stole a police vehicle and crashing it, before exchanging gunfire with the suspect who then stole a second police vehicle, Monday, May 6, 2024, in Paris, Maine.
Authorities said he crashed again a short distance from there. By the end, 11 officers ultimately fired their weapons, and Porter was struck once by an officer's bullet. Police didn't say that any officers were hit. Porter’s initial court appearance on two counts of theft, assault on a police officer, escaping custody, eluding police and violation of bail was set for Wednesday, by video conference from the Cumberland County Jail, but his defense said the medication he was given made him mumble and unable to keep his eyes open. He had another opportunity on Friday, but his attorney Justin Leary, said he still wasn't fit to go before a judge.
But the video shows what happened next: Porter, still cuffed and in a white hospital gown, ignored shouts of “put your hands up!” and climbed into an SUV that had been left with its driver's door wide open. More bullets flew as he drove away.
