UMaine Police Offer Reward
Contact: Joe Carr at (207) 581-3571
ORONO — University of Maine President Robert Kennedy has authorized a $1,000 reward for information leading to the positive identification of those responsible for flipping over a car in UMaine’s Stodder Hall parking lot early Monday morning. Police believe this happened during the campus celebration of the Boston Red Sox World Series victory.
The vehicle was severely damaged and UMaine police believe that there may have been witnesses who can help them identify those who caused the damage.
“This is not funny, nor is it in keeping with the appropriate form of celebration at UMaine,” says Police Chief Noel March. “If it happened to any one of us, we would want the person responsible to be held accountable. The student who owns this car did nothing to deserve this kind of treatment and he deserves restitution.”
Those who wish to report information should call Det. Sgt. Chris Gardner at 581-4048. Any witnesses who wish to forego the reward and report information anonymously may do so at the UMaine Dept. of Public Safety website.
