ATTLEBORO - A man who led police on a car chase into Rhode Island earlier this week was ordered held in jail on $500 cash bail following arraignment Friday in Attleboro District Court.
Menkeo Vy, 27, of 1559 Bay St. in Taunton, was arrested about 12:30 a.m. Tuesday on Interstate 95 South in Pawtucket, near the Providence line, after police used a "rolling road block" to stop him.
Vy pleaded innocent Friday to refusing to stop for police, assault by means of a dangerous weapon and various motor vehicle violations.
Police allege he tried to force a police cruiser to hit the rear of his car and drove toward other police cruisers on Newport Avenue when they attempted to stop him.
Police responded after receiving a call from Pawtucket police about a suspicious man bending his rear license plate in Pawtucket before driving toward Attleboro with his car lights off, police said.
