DOVER - A Rochester man who formerly lived in Farmington and has had multiple run-ins with area police in both New Hampshire and Maine pleaded guilty and was sentenced on Thursday to 12 months in Strafford County Jail for two drug possession charges from 2015.

Farr, 22, who also goes by the alias Bryan Farr-Luciano, was indicted in June 2015 on heroin and possession charges in connection with an arrest in Farmington earlier that year on March 29.

At the time of his arrest Farr was living at the Strafford Inn in Farmington, but since has lived on Atwood Street in Rochester and Folsom Street in Dover.

In November Sanford Police arrested him on 20 counts including operating after habitual offender revocation, five drug possession charges, several violations of conditions of release, operating without a license and failing to stop for an officer among others.

Sanford Police have a long history of run-ins with Farr. In fact, tired of hearing how he, while being sought by police, had allegedly bragged how local lawmen couldn't' find him because of his hide and seek prowess, Sanford Police in April took to Facebook with some lighthearted banter and a promise of lunch to anyone who tipped them off to his whereabouts.

A few days later the department got a tip that led to the arrest of Farr, whom police had been searching for some nine months.
