An Ashland police officer pulled the men over Sunday on Route 163 and discovered the vehicle had been stolen earlier this month.

Brock and Bason were taken to the Aroostook County Jail and released on Wednesday. Not long afterwards, State Police arrested the pair again for allegedly stealing another vehicle in Houlton, according to Ashland Police Chief Cyr Martin.

Brock remains behind bars, while Bason has been released on bail.

Martin said the family from Brunswick, Georgia arrived in Aroostook County Tuesday evening to pick up their vehicle and their belongings.
