NEW YORK (AP) — "The Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials" edged out Johnny Depp's "Black Mass" at box office, as the two films split young and old moviegoers in half on the first weekend of the fall movie season.
20th Century Fox's sequel to "The Maze Runner" earned an estimated $30.3 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. While that came in slightly below the debut of the 2014 young-adult dystopian sci-fi original, it counted as a win for a movie that cost $61 million to make.
STATE HOUSE — Sharing the same goal of reducing addiction and drug deaths, leaders in state government differ in their view of a recommendation made by a Senate committee, with Speaker Robert DeLeo questioning its constitutionality.
Sen. Jennifer Flanagan, a Leominster Democrat, led a special committee that recommended schools conduct conversations with schoolchildren to evaluate them for substance abuse or other risky behavior.
