The Lovell Neighborhood Watch Meeting went well. Lt Tom Harriman presented a very helpful program on elder abuse. Incidents for the past month were an array of things, alarms, a death, a suicide, there were 21 incidents. It was discussed there are lots of happy and drunk people out due to the nice weather. Many animals are playing in the roads day and night. We urge you to travel with caution. Also remember to report suspicous activity. Dep. Nelson gave a colorful description of the "Rainbow" group that has been in the area. Basically they are hippies camping in the National Forest. They approach children and ask them to play hide and seek. Just try to avoid them. School opens soon (Sept 1 in this district) plan ahead for bus stops and children near the road. The next meeting is September 15, see you there. This is your group, helping to keep this area safe and clean. Roxanne Craig 207-925-3295 craigs1980@fairpoint.net 
Next Lovell Neighborhood Watch MeetingNew Suncook School Cafeteria Wednesday, September 15, 2010 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm Guest Speaker Lovell woman charged with drug trafficking By M. Dirk Langeveld, Staff Writer Aug 14, 2010 A 46-year-old Lovell woman was arrested Thursday on charges that she illegally sold prescription drugs near an elementary school earlier this year. Connie M. Scott of Christian Hill Road was charged with one count of aggravated trafficking in Oxycodone and one count of trafficking in Oxycodone. Both charges stem from the same alleged drug sale, which took place in January within 1,000 feet of the Stevens Brook Elementary School, police said. “It's actually one sale, but there's two chargeable offenses,” said Chief David Lyons of the Bridgton Police Department. “The first offense is for selling a drug, which puts it in the felony category. The second offense is for selling that same drug in a school zone.” Oxycodone is a prescription painkiller. Lyons said Scott's arrest, which followed her indictment on the charges by the Cumberland County grand jury, is part of an ongoing drug enforcement program. “We're committed to this significant problem, and we're going to continue to move forward,” he said. Scott was not at the Cumberland County Jail as of Friday afternoon. http://www.sunjournal.com/oxford-hills/story/893468 | |
