A Scituate man was arrested on Saturday morning after an armed carjacking and attempt to flee arrest ended with a BMW crashing into a stone wall in Kingston, according to Massachusetts State Police.
Trevor Baylef, 34, was identified as the suspect in a morning carjacking and chase that began at 8:23 a.m. when Boston police issued a Be On the Look Out alert that a BMW X5 SUV was wanted after an armed carjacking.
The BMW was last seen on Interstate 93 at Route 3. At the same time, a call came to police that a vehicle was driving erratically on Route 3 in the southbound lane with the same description as the BMW.
At about 8:28 a.m. State Police saw the BMW on Route 3 South in Duxbury near the North Street overpass.
Police tried to stop the driver but he fled and a pursuit ensued.
After taking exit 18 off Route 3 onto Main Street in Kingston, the driver crashed into a stone wall near the intersection of Main Street and Landing Road.
Baylef was brought to Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital in Plymouth for potential injuries from the crash.
No other vehicles were involved in the crash, according to police.
State police said they found a knife in plain sight inside the crashed BMW.
