Joseph Michael Gallo, 31, appeared in 8th District Court on Monday by videoconference to plead guilty to four felonies, two of them from an Aug. 27 chase and two from a chase in a stolen pickup truck on Oct. 10.
In that case, Gallo drove off in a pickup truck parked at Lepage Bakery by a worker who left his keys in the truck.
Police pursued the truck that sped up to 25 mph over the posted limit.
He abandoned the truck on Bartlett Street and fled on foot, but was caught by police, who recovered from the truck a hypodermic needle with liquid in it, a bag of methamphetamine and a sedative for which he had no prescription.
