BANGOR, Maine (WGAN)  The Bangor Police Department says a Maine man wanted in connection with a murder investigation in North Carolina was arrested at Bangor International Airport on Monday.

Police say around 4 p.m. yesterday, the Halifax County Sheriff’s Department in North Carolina contacted them, indicating that 26-year-old Javon Richardson was on a flight that was about to land in Bangor.

Police had a full extradition warrant for the Brewer man, charging him with obstructing justice in connection with a homicide that happened on April 11 in Hollister, North Carolina.
