Lewiston city council votes on demolition of 149 College Street Infinite Scroll Enabled The garage at 149 College St. in Lewiston, Maine, was demolished after it was heavily damaged by a fire at the home on Aug. 28, 2024. Police said the home has been involved in an ongoing drug investigation. Lewiston city council votes on demolition of 149 College Street City councilors discussed the fate of the condemned building, following a fire that seriously damaged the attached garage in late August. Updated: 12:46 AM EDT Sep 4, 2024 Infinite Scroll Enabled A home that was the center of multiple drug busts in recent months, as well as a serious fire in late August, has been condemned and ordered demolished by Lewiston's city council. City leaders discussed 149 College Street during Tuesday night's council meeting. The unanimous vote means the owner must immediately secure the property. According to city attorney, within 30 days they must either demolish the building or come up with a plan to remediate the numerous issues laid out by code enforcement officials. At least four drug busts had been carried out at the home this year, according to Lewiston police, including one in mid-August in which five people were arrested.The City of Lewiston Planning & Code Enforcement Department recently cited 149 College St. for health and safety violations because of trash and debris accumulated outside, including drug paraphernalia and human waste. Then on Aug. 29 a fire broke out at the home. The cause remains unknown after the garage collapsed, injuring two firefighters. The day after the fire, Code Enforcement director Jon Connor told Maine's Total Coverage "it's just uninhabitable for humans right now." Tuesday night, code enforcement officer Travis Tardif told the council that a bucket full of used needles outside the home had been knocked over while firefighters were trying to put out of the flames. Needles were reportedly strewn across a portion of the yard, complicating response efforts. Tardif also presented several photos from inside the home, including one of a paper bowl being used as an ashtray. 23 people were reportedly living in the home at one point, with no running water since early August, and no electricity since June. In what Connor and Tardif said was the likelihood of the building owner not abiding by the demolition order, Lewiston's city attorney explained that the council has the authority to vote to proceed with the demolition at city expense. The cost can then be recouped through either civil action or a special tax. Connor said Tardif has worked with the building owners since February to try and remediate the health and safety code violations. Tardif described the owners, listed in public records as Matthew R. Brissette and Michelle L. Martin, as not being very "responsive" to those efforts. “This building...it meets the definition it meets the criteria of a dangerous building," Connor told the city council. "We would love the owner to come forward and do something with the building. We've tried, we've implored, code officer Tardif has worked with the owner," Connor said. "We just do not see that happening, and short of compelling the owner to sell the building to us or to someone else, we see this as the best alternative right now.” LEWISTON, Maine — Lewiston Code Enforcement Dept.

Several flights scheduled at Portland Jetport delayed, canceled or diverted Infinite Scroll Enabled Portland Jetport Several flights scheduled at Portland Jetport delayed, canceled or diverted Though fog may be a factor, the reason for the flight impacts is unclear as of early Friday morning. Updated: 12:12 AM EDT Sep 20, 2024 Infinite Scroll Enabled Multiple flights appear to have been diverted from the Portland International Jetport Thursday night. The jetport's flight status website showed multiple flights from several airlines having been canceled, delayed or even diverted. According to flight tracking site FlightAware, one Delta flight from New York made it to Portland, circled at least once and flew south to Logan Airport in Boston. A media relations specialist for Massport (Massachusetts Port Authority), reached late Thursday night, was able to speak to Logan Airport operations staff, but it remained unclear why they had diverted. Maine's Total Coverage has reached out multiple times to several Jetport officials by email and phone, but have not heard back. We have also reached out to the Federal Aviation Administration. Though no official weather advisory was issued for the area Thursday night, visibility was low due to fog, which may have contributed to concerns about safe landings. The Jetport's primary east/west runway has been closed since the morning of Sept. 11 due to a five-month-long taxiway restructuring project. All air traffic is being conducted on the north-south runway until Sept. 25. This is a developing situation. This article will be updated as we learn more.

Attorney Martin Estrada said, quote, Mr Otani is considered *** victim in this case and there is no evidence to indicate he authorized the transfers. Forbes reports. Mizuhara allegedly had access to Otani S bank account because he helped him create it. Mizuhara reportedly transferred large sums of money to bookmakers accounts. Otani arrived from Japan in 2018 and signed the largest contract in MLB history at $700 million over 10 years when he joined the Dodgers. Shohei Ohtani becomes the first major league player with 50 homers, 50 stolen bases in a season Updated: 8:13 PM EDT Sep 19, 2024 Shohei Ohtani became the first major league player to exceed 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases in a season during the most spectacular game of a history-making career for the Los Angeles Dodgers star, going deep three times and swiping two bags on Thursday against the Miami Marlins.Related video above: Interpreter charged with stealing $16 million from Shohei OhtaniOhtani hit his 49th homer in the sixth inning, his 50th in the seventh and his 51st in the ninth. He finished 6 for 6 with 10 RBIs while becoming the first big league player to hit three homers and steal two bases in a game.The Japanese superstar reached the second deck in right-center on two of his three homers at LoanDepot Park. In the sixth inning, he launched a 1-1 slider from George Soriano 438 feet for his 49th.Ohtani hit his 50th homer in the seventh inning, an opposite-field, two-run shot to left against Marlins reliever Mike Baumann. Then, in the ninth, his 51st traveled 440 feet to right-center, a three-run shot against Marlins second baseman Vidal Brujan, who came in to pitch with the game out of hand.Ohtani took care of the stolen bases earlier in the game, swiping his 50th in the first and his 51st in the second.The Japanese superstar led off the game with double against Edward Cabrera and swiped third on the front end of a double steal with Freddie Freeman, who reached on a walk.Ohtani has been successful on his last 28 stolen base attempts.He reached the 50-50 milestone in his 150th game. Ohtani was already the sixth player in major league history and the fastest ever to reach 40 home runs and 40 stolen bases in a season, needing just 126 games.Ohtani's previous career high in homers was 46 for the Los Angeles Angels in 2021, when he also made 23 starts on the mound and won his first of two American League MVP awards.Already the consensus best player in baseball whose accomplishments as a pitcher and batter outpaced even Babe Ruth, Ohtani reached new heights as an offensive player while taking the year off from pitching.Ohtani signed a $700 million, 10-year deal with the Dodgers last December. The two-way star, who previously spent six years with the Los Angeles Angels, has played exclusively at designated hitter this season as he rehabilitates after surgery a year ago for an injured elbow ligament.Preparation was a key to Ohtani becoming the first member of the 50-50 club. He regularly huddled with the team's hitting coaches and studied video of opposing pitchers to understand their tendencies with hitters and baserunners.“I see all the work he puts in,” Dodgers catcher Will Smith said recently. “It's not like he goes out there and it's too easy for him. He works harder than anybody. He scouts really hard. He's playing a different game so it's fun to see.”Ohtani appeared to make the 50-50 mark his mission. He increased the frequency of his base-stealing attempts and in turn his success rate went up.But that may not be the case next year when he returns to the mound.“He's not pitching this year so I think he is emptying the tank offensively,” Manager Dave Roberts said. “I do think the power, the on-base (percentage), the average, I think he can do that as a pitcher. He's done something pretty similar like that with his OPS. But as far as the stolen bases go, I'm not sure about that.”Ohtani's teammates have enjoyed watching him crush home runs and scamper around the bases.“I'm honestly kind of trying to learn from him just seeing the way he goes about his day-to-day business. He's very consistent, the same demeanor throughout,” outfielder Tommy Edman said recently. “I think that's why he's such a good player.”Third baseman Max Muncy added, “Every night I feel like he does something that we haven't seen.”What's next for Ohtani?The Dodgers are headed to the postseason in October, which will be another first for Ohtani. He never made it there with the Angels, who never had a winning record during his tenure in Anaheim.Another potential first could be earning National League MVP honors as a designated hitter. No player who got most of his playing time as a DH — without pitching — has ever won MVP, although Don Baylor, Edgar Martinez and David Ortiz placed high in the vote.It would be Ohtani's third career MVP award.___AP Sports Writer Beth Harris in Los Angeles contributed to this report.

Ohtani was already the sixth player in major league history and the fastest ever to reach 40 home runs and 40 stolen bases in a season, needing just 126 games.Ohtani's previous career high in homers was 46 for the Los Angeles Angels in 2021, when he also made 23 starts on the mound and won his first of two American League MVP awards.Already the consensus best player in baseball whose accomplishments as a pitcher and batter outpaced even Babe Ruth, Ohtani reached new heights as an offensive player while taking the year off from pitching.Ohtani signed a $700 million, 10-year deal with the Dodgers last December. The two-way star, who previously spent six years with the Los Angeles Angels, has played exclusively at designated hitter this season as he rehabilitates after surgery a year ago for an injured elbow ligament.Preparation was a key to Ohtani becoming the first member of the 50-50 club. He regularly huddled with the team's hitting coaches and studied video of opposing pitchers to understand their tendencies with hitters and baserunners.“I see all the work he puts in,” Dodgers catcher Will Smith said recently. “It's not like he goes out there and it's too easy for him. He works harder than anybody. He scouts really hard. He's playing a different game so it's fun to see.”Ohtani appeared to make the 50-50 mark his mission. He increased the frequency of his base-stealing attempts and in turn his success rate went up.But that may not be the case next year when he returns to the mound.“He's not pitching this year so I think he is emptying the tank offensively,” Manager Dave Roberts said. “I do think the power, the on-base (percentage), the average, I think he can do that as a pitcher. He's done something pretty similar like that with his OPS. But as far as the stolen bases go, I'm not sure about that.”Ohtani's teammates have enjoyed watching him crush home runs and scamper around the bases.“I'm honestly kind of trying to learn from him just seeing the way he goes about his day-to-day business. He's very consistent, the same demeanor throughout,” outfielder Tommy Edman said recently. “I think that's why he's such a good player.”Third baseman Max Muncy added, “Every night I feel like he does something that we haven't seen.”What's next for Ohtani?The Dodgers are headed to the postseason in October, which will be another first for Ohtani. He never made it there with the Angels, who never had a winning record during his tenure in Anaheim.Another potential first could be earning National League MVP honors as a designated hitter. No player who got most of his playing time as a DH — without pitching — has ever won MVP, although Don Baylor, Edgar Martinez and David Ortiz placed high in the vote.It would be Ohtani's third career MVP award.___AP Sports Writer Beth Harris in Los Angeles contributed to this report.
