Buxton police charge 40 people with trespassing in closed park

Pleasant Point Park near the Saco River was closed by town officials because of large crowds, littering and illegal drinking.

Police say they arrested Muhamud Said Abdullahi, 27, Friday after reports that he threatened a homeowner with a handgun.

Decontamination of the building is expected to begin this week and subsequent testing could cost $5,000 to $6,000.

Police were called to the Buxton United Methodist Church on Thursday morning to investigate suspicious activity.

A piece of ransomeware was installed on a district server last weekend, possibly exposing sensitive employee information.

At least 63 minors attended the party Saturday on Portland Road, and two men were arrested, police said.

Police say 25-year-old Nathaniel Bean failed to stop for an officer and forced several cars off the road.

The chief says the car driven was by a 17-year-old boy from Windham.

Police say Donovan Sanborn also threatened people with an ax during the incident last week on Old Thompson Road.

Police say Justin Sproul backed his truck into another vehicle and inadvertently towed it from a bar parking lot.
