BANGOR DAILY NEWS • July 10, 2023

A barred owl was hit and injured by a car Sunday evening near Cumberland Street, according to the Westbrook Police Department. Passersby stopped to help keep the owl safe, though it was a flight risk — it tried to escape to the woods. It was corralled by an officer, and a game warden took the owl to a rehabilitation center to recover from its injuries.
