The 25-year-old man who exchanged gunfire with Gorham police as they tried to apprehend him Wednesday was suicidal and wanted police to kill him, a prosecutor said in court Friday. Aaron Bouchard, of Saco, was ordered held on $50,000 cash bail by Judge E. Paul Eggert at his initial appearance in Cumberland County Unified Court. He is charged with reckless conduct with a dangerous weapon, criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon and terrorizing. All are Class C felonies, punishable by up to five years in prison, a $5,000 fine or both. His defense attorney, Heather Gonzalez, said Bouchard had been experiencing mental health problems, and despite attempts to get treatment, his condition worsened on Wednesday. “He needs to be in a hospital,” Gonzalez said.
