Paul Hatch, 37, of Waterville, was arrested Tuesday after he stole a truck from a Winthrop fuel company and hours later led police on a multicounty chase that ended when the vehicle flipped onto its side while making an abrupt turn, according to officials. At the time of the crash, the stolen vehicle was carrying about 1,100 gallons of kerosene and No. 2 fuel oil, posing a significant hazard.
