SOMERSWORTH, N.H. — Police say two men are suspected of robbing a gas station in New Hampshire, then leading officers on a chase into Maine.

Police arrested 18-year-old Patrick Saunders of Somersworth and 30-year-old Allan Nicholson of Milton early Monday after their vehicle crashed in North Berwick, Maine. A K9 officer found them in the woods.

They face aggravated reckless conduct with a dangerous weapon, eluding a police officer, and fugitive from justice charges in Maine.

Foster’s Daily Democrat reports (http://bit.ly/QsR2te) Maine officials said when the two men are returned to New Hampshire, they will face additional charges there. Police said they are suspects in a robbery at a gas station in Somersworth.

Both men are being held at York County Jail.
