Portland man arrested after high-speed chase

A police chase at speeds reaching 110 miles per hour ended Saturday afternoon in Portland after a short foot chase. Mohammed Alzamili of Portland faces several charges, including aggravated driving to endanger after he sped off from an attempted traffic stop on Interstate 295 in Yarmouth before 5 p.m., according to the Maine State Police. Police said Alzamili was weaving in and out traffic in a “dangerous manner,” made it appear he would stop for a trooper before driving away at a high rate of speed toward Portland. Trooper Patrick Flanagan followed, with speeds reaching 110 mph before Alzamili left I-295 at the Washington Avenue exit in Portland, where he sped through city streets and almost struck several pedestrians near the Rising Tide Brewing Co.
