OSSIPEE — The Maine man who escaped from Carroll County jail last Thursday was apprehended in Rochester on Tuesday evening and went to court on Wednesday — his 34th birthday. Bail was set at $500,000. The ordeal left the county jail superintendent
"extremely frustrated" because he said county budget makers haven't given him enough money to seal the jail's perimeter or have an adequate number of corrections officers. Authorities had been searching for David Glenn Hobson, 34, of York County, Maine, who made his escape on Thursday by jumping off the jail's roof and climbing over the jail's razor wire. see CAUGHT page 9

CONWAY — Voters, not the school board, will have the ultimate say whether the number of teaching teams at Kennett Middle School is reduced from four to three next year. A reduction in teams would mean a reduction in staff costs, but some board members are concerned that the quality of education would be compromised.
