Mink found ‘in fish heaven’ in store’s live-bait tank

[Maine-ah]

ROWNVILLE, Maine — There was no slinking away. He was caught red-handed inside the tank with the evidence in his mouth.

John Belvin of The Junction Store in Brownville had been working at his office desk on Saturday when he heard a ruckus in the store’s bait room. As he entered the room, Belvin noticed that the siphon hose to the fish tank had been knocked out and the floor was wet.

Peering inside the tank, Belvin did a double take. Sitting in a small pool of water was a sopping wet mink enjoying a smorgasbord of live bait.
