A Ludlow man is in trouble for allegedly lying to the police and helping a runaway teen.

Police say Jason Gagne, 27, spoke with 16-year-old Alexyz Grundy and had information about her but denied it when they asked him. They got a tip the teen was with Gagne in the Ludlow area. He later admitted he was in contact with her.

Police arrested him and he's scheduled to be in court on Wednesday at noon.

Police are still looking for Alexyz Grundy.

If you can help, call the Ludlow police or Vermont state police in Westminster.
