The crash occurred at the intersection of North Palermo Road, Greeley Road, and Albion Road. The intersection is also known as Hutchins Corner.

Dawna Kent, of Manchester, was driving a 2009 Ford Focus in a north-westerly direction on Greeley Road toward the intersection of North Palermo Road and Albion Road. According to the Waldo County Sheriff’s Office, Kent allegedly failed to stop at the stop sign at the end of Greeley Road where another vehicle traveling north-easterly on North Palermo Road had the right of way. 

As that second vehicle, a 2011 Ford F350, owned by Cianbro, of Pittsfield, and operated by Ruben Schofield Sr, 45, of Thorndike, crossed onto North Palermo Road it allegedly drove into the path of Kent’s vehicle.
