BETHEL, Maine (AP) A Maine restaurant owner is once again flouting Democratic Gov. Janet Mill’s executive orders over the coronavirus.
Rick Savage reopened his Sunday River Brewing Co. on Tuesday in defiance of the governor’s orders, and he’s continuing to criticize Mills for not acting fast enough to reopen the state’s economy.
Savage previously opened his restaurant for dine-in customers on Friday before closing over the weekend.
The Oxford County sheriff says his deputies won’t be getting involved as long as things remain peaceful.
The governor’s executive orders allow restaurants to open only for takeout orders until June 1.
