Bangor police said they arrested a man early Friday for driving a car with expired plates.

On Dec. 18, 2002, Officer Shawn Green pulled over 23-year-old Bangor resident Centrale Williams on Main Street because the license plate of the car he was driving had expired four months before. Green said Williams received a written warning.

Green said he stopped Williams again March 20 on the Joshua Chamberlain Bridge and summoned him for operating an unregistered motor vehicle. Green told Williams that if he found him driving the same car again, he would be arrested.

Green stopped Williams shortly before 2 a.m. Friday on Clinton Street driving the same car, he said. When dispatch confirmed Williams’ plates still had not been renewed, Green arrested him.

Williams was charged with operating an unregistered motor vehicle.

A Bangor couple was arrested late Wednesday night after police found them on Outer Hammond Street, the husband walking beside the road and his wife driving in a car slowly behind him.

Bangor police Officer Steve Jordan said 52-year-old Linda Labreck drove off while he was investigating the situation, and wouldn’t stop for him or his siren. She pulled into the parking lot of the Ranger Inn, where the Labrecks had been living.

Once stopped, Labreck was unsteady on her feet as she got out of the car and showed signs of intoxication as well as signs that she had been assaulted, according to the police report.

Taken to St. Joseph Hospital, Labreck had bruises on her face, chest and an arm, some of them apparently older injuries, according to a hospital doctor. Labreck said that that night her husband, Rodney Labreck, 49, had hit her in the face and grabbed her by the throat. She said she struck him back, asking him how he liked it.

Linda Labreck was charged with operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicants, operating a motor vehicle after suspension, failure to stop for a police officer and violation of conditions of release. Rodney Labreck was charged with assault and violation of bail conditions.

A Hampden woman told police Wednesday that returning home she found a basement door ajar and that much of her home had been rifled through.

An undisclosed amount of jewelry and a Sony video game console were taken, according to Hampden police Officers Shawn Devine and Ken Lawson. The burglary of the Main Road North home took place sometime between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Anyone with information or who may have seen something suspicious may contact the police at 862-4000.
