Several Maine agencies are working together to locate a missing woman from Brownfield who’s been missing since Tuesday afternoon.
The Missing Woman is Impacted by Dementia
Weslene Marble, 69, of Brownfield was last seen on Hampshire Road in that town just before 1:00 Tuesday. Ms. Marble is impacted by dementia and officials say she could be very confused.
Officials are Asking for People in the Area to Check Their Outdoor Camera Feeds
Mark Latti with the Maine Warden Service says it’s believed she may have headed north on the Pequawket Trail, also known as Route 113 or Route 5, toward Fryeburg, but officials say this direction of travel is uncertain. Investigating officers are asking that anyone with cameras anywhere in this vicinity check their video feeds for any sightings of her. Officials say that she may not have her bike anymore but could have traveled a significant distance by bike or on foot.

The Maine Immigrants’ Rights Coalition says over the past two weeks its immigrant defense hotline has seen an uptick in reported ICE detentions.
They say this corresponds with a national shift in ICE activity, including bids for local businesses to cooperate with ICE.
In Maine, the arrests follow a broader trend of targeting Black and brown immigrants, including people navigating immigration proceedings.
The coalition, which represents more than 100 organizations, says it’s ready to protect civil and human rights and is urging immigrants to prepare themselves and their families.
BE THE FIRST TO COMMENT
They suggest having the defense hotline ready in case you witness ICE activity, making sure you have important personal documents in case of detention, and reviewing rights around judicial warrants in private spaces, like your home or workplace.
It wouldn’t be Mother’s Day without a stop at the florist.
According to Fox Business, about 154 million flowers are sold during the week of Mother’s Day. So it’s safe to say it was a busy day for stores like Estabrook’s Maine Garden Center and Nursery.
Plenty of families stopped by to pick out flowers on Sunday, looking to choose the perfect bouquet for their moms.
“I think Mother’s Day is tradition, you know, and so it’s great to see families here. We have a lot of new families that have come today for the first time with their young children and their mother. Watching the young kids and seeing how excited they are—their eyes light up at all the beautiful flowers,” Tom Estabrook, president of Estabrook’s, said.
Estabrook says Mother’s Day tends to be a great kickoff to the spring season.
