An Auburn man has been taken into custody again, days after he was accused of damaging vehicles at a car dealership.

25-year-old Skyler Henson was arrested Saturday for swinging a weighted backpack at vehicles in the lot at Rowe Auburn, causing as much as $90,000 in damage. He was released on $150 bail.

Police say Henson was arrested again Tuesday night after being involved in a multi-vehicle crash at the intersection of Main and Canal Streets in Lewiston around 7:30.

Police said Henson fled the scene and crashed into other vehicles before he was found on Lisbon Street and taken into custody.

His latest charges include driving to endanger and leaving the scene of an accident.
