NAPLES, ME – A Maine man was seriously injured in a car accident in Naples early this morning. The Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office said that 48-year-old Patrick Connolly III, of Naples, was driving in his Chevy Pickup truck on Route 11 at around 6:30 am, when he failed to stop at a stop sign at the intersection of Route 302. Connolly continued through the intersection and struck an embankment.

Emergency crews from Naples Fire/rescue called for a Life Flight helicopter once on scene due to the severity of Connolly’s injuries. He was flown to Centeral Maine Medical Center for treatment, his condition had not been released by news time.

Authorities said that though the investigation is still on going speed and alcohol appear to be factors.

‘CRAZY RICH ASIANS’ TOPS BOX OFFICE FOR SECOND WEEK – (08/27/2018)

Warner Bros.’ Crazy Rich Asians topped the box office for the second weekend, with $25 million, registering a drop of just 6%. Even more impressively, Crazy Rich Asians brought in $10.3 million in its second Saturday, the same amount it made last weekend. 

This is the third win for Warner Bros. at the box office, and the second weekend in a row that it topped the top two spots, thanks to The Meg, which chomped up $13 million. 

Meanwhile, Melissa McCarthy’s gross-out comedy The Happytime Murders bombed with a $10 million opener. Observers say the lackluster numbers came from a low promotional effort, possibly itself due to a C- CinemaScore and two stars on PostTrak. 

Hooray for Hollywood: Here are this past weekend’s box office results.

  1. Crazy Rich Asians — $25 million
  2. The Meg — $13 million
  3. The Happytime Murders — $10 million
  4. Mission: Impossible — Fallout — $8 million
  5. Christopher Robin — $6.3 million
  6. Mile 22 — $6 million
  7. Alpha — $5.6 million
  8. BlacKkKlansman — $5.3 million
  9. A.X.L. — $2.9 million
  10. Slender Man — $2.8 million

JACKSON, NH – A 142-year-old New Hampshire covered bridge is getting some repairs. New Hampshire Department of Transportation Officials said work on the Honeymoon Covered Bridge in Jackson was scheduled to start on today (8/27/18). It will take three weeks to complete.

The Department of Transportation says during the repairs, the bridge will be closed to all traffic daily from 7 a.m.to 3:30 p.m. Signs at each end will alert drivers to the closure. The bridge over the Ellis River will be open to traffic on weekends during the repair time period.

The bridge was damaged by vehicles twice within a few weeks. A Conway teen crashed a minivan into a bridge support and truss on June 30, and then an Alvin J. Coleman & Son cement truck damaged the bridge’s roof on July 23.
