WATERBORO, ME : Three injured in head-on Waterboro crash on Sunday, July 9, 2017

Three people were taken to Maine Medical Center in Portland late Sunday afternoon – one of them by LifeFlight helicopter - following a head-on crash on Route 5, also known as Sokokis Trail.

York County Sheriff’s Office deputies late Sunday were reconstructing the crash to try and determine the cause.

Sheriff William King, in a statement released at 10:22 p.m, said responding deputies found that a 2012 black Honda Accord driven by Judith Toomey, 60, of Wells was traveling west on Sokokis Trail when it collided head-on with a 2010 white Chevrolet Tahoe on Route 5 near the intersection with Silas Brown Road. Toomey was the sole occupant of her vehicle. Tina Ayotte, 47, of Waterboro was the operator of the Tahoe and her daughter, Emma Ayotte, 19, was a passenger, King said.

Waterboro Fire and Rescue used extraction tools to remove both drivers and the passenger from their vehicles. King said the roof of the Honda had to be removed to extract Toomey, who was flown by LifeFlight Maine Medical Center. Waterboro Rescue and Limerick Rescue took Tina Ayotte and her daughter to the Portland hopsital.

Sokokis Trail was closed for about three hours Sunday while investigators worked at the scene.

Condition of the three patients was not available early this morning.
