LEWISTON, Maine (AP) -- A man on Montana's most wanted list in connection with a throat slashing has been arrested in Lewiston, Maine.
The Sun Journal reports that 49-year-old Kelly Zuhlke, formerly of Gallatin County, Mont., was arrested last week in Lewiston, where police said he was using his dead brother's name and Social Security number. He had a hearing in Maine's 8th District Court Friday.
Gallatin County Sheriff Brian Gootkin said the investigation was a joint effort with the U.S. Marshal's service and Maine authorities.
Zuhlke was charged with felony assault with a weapon in Montana in 2008 after prosecutors said he slashed another man's throat outside a transmission shop. The man survived the attack.
The Sun Journal reports that Zuhlke is also wanted in Wisconsin in connection with a burglary charge.
