A remaining suspect in the 2024 fatal shooting at Morrill’s Corner in Portland has turned himself in five months after an arrest warrant was issued, officials say.
Kristofer Haken, 46, of Londonderry, New Hampshire surrendered to New Hampshire authorities on Wednesday, according to Portland police.
“Haken was a fugitive for approximately six months evading law enforcement after the issuance of a November 8, 2024, arrest warrant,” police said in a statement.
Haken was charged with one count of conspiracy to commit elevated aggravated assault and two counts of elevated aggravated assault by Portland police, according to police.
On May 6, the U.S. Marshals Service obtained a federal arrest warrant for unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
Haken is expected to be extradited to Maine.
