2. A Republican super PAC accidentally spent nearly $25,000 on ads attacking Maine Senate candidate Troy Jackson in the wrong Portland. The group Defending Main Street mistakenly targeted voters in Portland, Oregon, instead of Portland, Maine. The ads have since been pulled, and the group received a full refund. (WGME)

3. Hannaford customers are dealing with online outages after the supermarket chain’s parent company shut down critical systems following a cybersecurity incident. Online ordering and the Hannaford mobile app are currently unavailable, with pharmacy services also experiencing disruptions. Hannaford stores remain open for in-person shopping. (WGME)

4. A bull moose is back in the wild after getting trapped overnight in a well near Sugarloaf. Maine game wardens and two brothers who run an excavation company worked together to dig a ramp and carefully remove part of the well’s wall. The 600-to-700-pound moose eventually climbed out on its own, and officials stopped traffic on Route 27 as it ran safely into the woods. (NCM)

5. Maine celebrated Indigenous Peoples’ Day Monday, a holiday that replaced Columbus Day in the state back in 2019. The day honors the history, culture and contributions of Native American communities. The Wabanaki Alliance hosted a celebration at Capitol Park in Augusta featuring drumming, dancing, basket-making and other cultural activities. (WGME)
