Suspect in Poland double homicide waives extradition, will return to Maine


An Auburn man accused of killing two people in Poland will soon be back in Maine to face a pair of murder charges.

Aaron Aldrich, 46, faces two counts of murder in the deaths of 16-year-old Mohamed Aden of Lewiston and 21-year-old Shoeb Mohamed Adan of Springfield, Massachusetts.

The victims were found dead last week during a welfare check at a home on Tripp Lake Road.

Aldrich was behind bars in New Hampshire on unrelated charges when he was charged with the killings.

According to CBS 13, officials say Aldrich waived extradition Tuesday and will be returned to Maine on Monday.
