Account from one local on Facebook:
"Our little town Searsmont Maine. There is a large lumber facility here. Robbins lumber. Family owned by locals in our town. At 11:25 there was a large explosion. Appears a silo has exploded.
Mass casualties with ambulances, flight for life and fire departments on the scene. Multiple towns responding.
Prayers for everyone involved and the Robbins family. My hearts are with them all.
Every morning I can look out and I see the plume of smoke from the mill and I know which direction the wind is blowing. As the crow flies Robbins is only just over a mile away. This breaks my heart."
Say a prayer for those affected in Maine.

I don't have a huge amount of followers and I don't think my posts are seen much. I ask for prayers. I had breast cancer 3 years ago and went through treatment. I have now found another lump. I go in for tests Wednesday. Please pray God removes the cancer from me. Thank you.
@SteveRob@TheMaineWire People have been critical of Maine voters for a long time, I appreciate you opening their eyes to what we are up against. It’s brutal up here!
Maine is a mafia state. If you oppose the corrupt power structure, the State will send swarms of agents to ruin you.
This is not the way life should be.
⚠️Language warning:
USPS worker loses his mind, starts screaming at and harassing law enforcement officers who are calmly and professionally carrying out their jobs.
You can see his postal truck in the video.
"Messing with me is a federal offense motherf**kers. I work for the government too."
@TheMaineWire “Immigrants built this Country”, true, but they BUILT, this Country. Immigrants today are destroying this Country (not all) but many are hurting, killing, defrauding, and destroying every value true immigrants came here to make.
