A man who had holed up in his remote house for 2 1/2 years after a bank foreclosed on it, defying authorities who worried about a possible violent confrontation, was arrested on one of his rare excursions off the property.
Aaron Powell, 45, of Lunenburg, was arrested after his release from a hospital in Lancaster, N.H., where he went for treatment of bites from one of the dogs he allegedly trained to attack law officers, said Essex County State’s Attorney Vincent Illuzzi.
Powell was being held in lieu of $2,000 bail in Colebrook, N.H., pending an extradition hearing.
