A Buxton man was arrested in the early hours of Thursday morning after allegedly firing several rounds from a firearm in Portland and then crossing the Casco Bay Bridge into South Portland.
Shortly before 1 a.m. Thursday, police received a 911 call reporting reckless conduct with a firearm.
It was reported that a male suspect fired several rounds from a firearm in the area of 262 Commercial St. in Portland, and then proceeded to drive across the Casco Bay Bridge into South Portland.
South Portland Police detectives investigating a separate incident identified the vehicle as it drove west on Broadway St.
When the vehicle turned onto the dead end Morse St., police say they initiated a “high risk traffic stop.”
A male passenger who matched the description of the Portland suspect fled the vehicle on foot and into the backyards of nearby houses, “literally running through a wooden fence during his getaway,” police stated in a Thursday press release.
Officers detained two separate passengers from the vehicle while a perimeter and K9 team responded to the male subject who fled from the scene.
The male subject who fled, 30-year-old Mohamud Abdullahi of Buxton, was later located nearby.
South Portland Police wrote that while the Portland Police responded to the scene to investigate the Reckless Conduct charge, Abdullahi was arrested “due to his actions in [South Portland].”
He was arrested and charged for Refusing to Submit to Arrest and Assault — after “spitting in the face of one of our police officers,” the police wrote.
More “cultural enrichment”? Looking into Mohamud’s eyes doesn’t exactly set off bells that we’re bringing in the best and brightest to “do the work that Americans won’t do”.
Given Maine’s extremely liberal criminal justice system I’m sure he’s already back on the streets looking for more victims.
Blaming the gun for this guy’s misdeeds coming in three . . . two . . . one!
He doesn’t sound like a native Buxton Ian.
Should read Buxtonian.
How long has he been “from Buxton”?!? 🙄
Current resident DOES NOT equal FROM.
@ ME Infidel
Don’t you mean the work that white girls won’t do?

DEPORT THIS SCUMBAG!!!
And so it begins. The beginning of the end, or the end of the beginning?
No matter; Soros’ hand-picked Cumberland County DA Sartoris is on duty to sort through this kerfuffle and do right by our “justice system,” paying due attention to making sure it is not oppressive or systemically racist.
Throw this mix into an AI algorithm and see what outcome you gett.
I’m sure the Abdullahi family goes way back in Buxton, lol.
Keep voting for those liberals, Maine. You won’t get a government that gives a damn for your life and safety but you’ll get exactly the government you deserve! So glad I left before you screwed up the state so badly.
