200nl Facing deep-stacked river 3-bet...can we fold a boat here??

Hi guys,

I thought this hand was quite interesting the other day on Ignition Zone 200nl. Obviously have no read on this player, since it's anonymous. Player pool is overall rather weak, especially during this session. Wondering your thoughts on this river...

Pre-flop: Effective stacks 200bb
UTG raises to 3bb ($6)
Hero is on button with 8h8d and calls $6

Flop Kh 8s 6d (Pot is $15)
UTG Checks
Hero bets $8
UTG Calls

Turn Ah (Pot is $31)
UTG Checks
Hero bets $22
UTG Calls

River Ah (Pot is $75)
UTG Bets $40
Hero raises to $140
UTG re-raises to $360 (all-in)
Hero.........???

From my experience with this player pool (~100k hands) villian's check-call on flop many times is a strong top pair AK/KQ...obv could be many other hands like QQ-99/A8s/A6s etc, but these stronger holdings are counted in his range.
When he check calls on the ace turn, I'm now more strongly counting AK/A8/A7 in his range. Still plenty of other hands he'll call with here, but I recall being optimistic he has turned two-pair.

Naturally this river and the resulting action made me fairly ill...I've seen some wacky things from this player pool, but 3-betting all-in for 200bb with this type of board is rarely done without nut holdings. So the value range I assign him is heavy on AK combos, a very small amount of A8s and A6s combos, a bit of KK and 66, and a fraction of trip AQ-A10 combos being misplayed by weaker opponents. Due to the spazziness of the player pool, I have to give him at least a tiny bluffing range, but 200bb deep it can't be much. Also, his river lead seems significant, but clouded the issue for me (did he lead because he just rivered the nuts and got excited? did he lead because he saw a scary card and wanted to win the pot? did he lead for more dangerous and skilled reasons?)

Should I be finding a fold here??

Spoiler: I had only 15 seconds to weigh all this and could not find a fold here...villian shows AK
