‼️ POST FROM FOUR LEGGED FREEDOM RESCUE‼️:

FOUND DOG — KENNEBUNK, MAINE

This sweet girl was found on Park Street in Kennebunk last night with no collar or leash only a blue flea collar.

Thankfully, she is microchipped, and I was able to track down some information. After receiving no response by phone, I contacted the veterinary hospital that originally implanted the microchip. They informed me that her original owner, Phyllis, who lived in Florida, sadly passed away in December, and that the “dogs” was then given to her daughter. Unfortunately, they did not have the daughter’s current contact information.

We are trying desperately to locate the person who must be missing this adorable girl.

My rescue Four Legged Freedom Rescue is contracted with the Town of Kennebunk for stray and lost animals.

If you know her, recognize her, or have any information about her current owner, please call 207-595-9137.

NEWS RELEASE

Massachusetts Man Charged in Bomb Threat at Town Hall Complex

In the morning hours of August 12, 2026, the Town of Kennebunk received two bomb threats, which forced the evacuation of the Town Hall Complex. This incident adversely affected business operations, and Town leadership ultimately closed the Town Hall for the remainder of the day.

The Kennebunk Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Division initiated an investigation that included assistance from the Maine State Police, Maine Capital Police, and FBI Portland.

That ensuing investigation led detectives to an address in Revere, Massachusetts, and eventually led to the person responsible for sending the threats. He has been identified as ANDRES GAVIRIA ARANGO, age 25. Detectives have now charged ARANGO with Terrorizing, a Class C felony, and he is scheduled to appear in the York Judicial Center on October 13th.

The Kennebunk Police Department would like to thank all our law enforcement partners who assisted in this investigation, especially the Revere, Massachusetts Police Department and its Behavioral Health Unit.
