PORTLAND (WGME) – Maine will not get as many crisis receiving centers as Governor Janet Mills set out to create. A crisis receiving center like "The Living Room" in Portland, run by Spurwink, is a building staffed with a team of health workers and volunteers.

It cut off funding this week, with no notice, to agencies working to resettle immigrants and refugees in the state.

LEWISTON, Maine — A Lewiston hotel that has served as temporary housing for refugees has been condemned for a second time. "We want to see our businesses flourishing," Jon Connor, Lewiston’s director of planning and code enforcement, said. "But our job is to make sure those buildings are safe and secure for the public."

A resident found the remains Saturday afternoon in Garcelon Bog, Maine authorities said. Officials believe the remains, found at the end of Lewiston’s Russell Street, have been in the bog for “an extended period of time,” and there is no danger to the public, the state’s Department of Public Safety said in a press release on Sunday.

A special education private school run by Spurwink says it should be allowed to immediately discharge a student who has injured staff, but the state education department says that's not allowed under federal law.

The cases are related to an apartment at 100 College Street, police said. After serving a search warrant, police detained eight teenagers.

Police are investigating after human remains were found in a bog in Lewiston, Maine, on Saturday afternoon. The human remains were found in the Garcelon Bog at the end of Russell Street, according to state police.

Mills authored the state's novel "yellow flag" law with a prominent gun rights group. She says a red flag proposal that would allow family members to petition a judge to remove a loved one's guns undermines that law.

The directive, issued on Friday, said the federal government will no longer reimburse resettlement agencies for certain basic needs including housing and food.

A State Department directive says agencies will not be reimbursed for items like housing and food assistance, cutting off lifelines for new Mainers during the first three months in a new community.

Experts say the gunman’s brain tissue points to traumatic injury ‘likely’ caused by blasts in the line of duty; the Army disagrees, but is taking steps to limit exposure.

Slick road conditions across Maine led to multiple crashes Wednesday. On Sabattus Street in Lewiston, a crash Wednesday morning brought down utility lines, making for a messy situation. The road was closed in the area for multiple hours but has since reopened.
