There are times when Maine feels a little like a mini version of Florida. Not because of the food, the beaches, or the tourists. Nope. Sometimes The Pine Tree State (AKA Vacationland) feels a little like Florida is because of some of the crime stories that come from Maine.
According to WGME, two people have been arrested in Buxton following an alleged robbery and carjacking.
Initially, 35-year-old Devan Goodson, of Lyman, claimed she picked up a hitchhiker on Main Street near the Bars Mills Bridge on Monday. She claimed the hitchhiker asked her to stop at the store. She stopped, he went into the store, and then ran out carrying two bottles of Fireball. When the man exited the store, he threatened her with a knife and told her to drive off. The suspect then reportedly took off.

Farm in Oregon City area expands Kunekune breeding efforts
Unexpected circumstances during wildfires last September help out Kristopher Buxton.
Buxton Farm has been having new litters of Kunekune pigs every couple of months send to Montana, Utah and several surrounding states as the popularity of the newly-registered pasture breed explodes worldwide.
Kristopher Buxton, who owns the Kunekune farm near Oregon City on Dillman Road, said the Disney character of pigs have become a beloved breed for their loving, loyal and carefree characteristics that remind people of Labrador retrievers. We could all use some cute piglets in our lives right now, Buxton said. They are a pasture pig, so you do not feed them waste or scraps; they get everything they need from the pastures and/or large yards and some water.
