1. Westbrook police have arrested a man suspected of breaking into multiple cars. Officers say 43-year-old Michael Blackwell, was caught after trying to flee, and some stolen items were recovered.

2. Old Orchard Beach Police are looking for help ID’ing a so-called ‘mushroom thief.’ A masked suspect swiped a giant candy shop prop — a four-foot mushroom — later found damaged beyond repair. Police joked on Facebook, calling the culprit an Oompa-Loompa and warning their picture will last longer than an Everlasting Gobstopper. (WGME)

3. Camden’s so-called ‘Night of the Raven’ has gone viral — but the name’s a total hoax. A fake Facebook post claimed police were hunting a Portland vandal nicknamed ‘The Raven,’ turning the spray-foam attack on 25 new parking kiosks into internet folklore. In reality, officials say the masked figure caused only minor damage, but the mess has fueled controversy over Camden’s new paid-parking plan. Police haven’t cracked the case yet, but a $5,000 reward is now up for grabs. (PH)

4. Facebook’s $725 million privacy settlement is finally paying out. Approved users are seeing payments averaging about 29 dollars, with checks ranging from five bucks up to nearly 40. The longer you had Facebook between 2007 and 2022, the bigger your cut. Payments will keep rolling out through the fall. (NCM)

5. Popeyes has teamed up with YouTube’s Hot Ones for a fiery new menu. Fans can try four chicken dishes that crank up the heat — from Sizzlin’ Sriracha Dippers to the infamous Last Dab. Host Sean Evans says it’s made to test spice lovers in the tastiest way possible. The menu’s out now for a limited time. (Parade)
