Robbins Lumber Tragedy: Maine is still processing Friday’s deadly explosion at the Robbins Lumber mill in Searsmont, where firefighter Andrew Cross, 27, died and others were badly hurt; an honorable transfer brought his body from Augusta to Belfast, while the town of Searsmont warns residents to watch for scam fundraisers and says an official relief fund is coming. Public Safety & Community: Tributes keep pouring in for Cross, and officials say the scene remains under investigation as more details about the blast and injuries emerge. Politics: In Louisiana, GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy lost his primary after voting to convict Trump in 2021, setting up a June runoff between Julia Letlow and John Fleming. Cost of Living: A new analysis finds most Americans can’t afford a new home—Maine is among the hardest-hit states. Health Watch: Tick bites are rising in the Northeast, pushing ER visits to their highest levels for this time of year since 2017. Weekend Planning: Northern lights could be visible farther south than usual, including Maine, if skies cooperate.
