AUGUSTA, Maine — A former city police officer died Monday afternoon while riding an all-terrain vehicle, according to Deputy Chief Jared Mills.

Charlie Winslow, 69, died of an apparent medical issue, Mills said in an email Tuesday.

He was riding on a trail off Route 105, according to Mills. He added the incident does not appear to be suspicious.

Winslow retired from the Augusta police force in the late 1980s, Mills said.

“Charlie will be sadly missed by our agency and the city of Augusta,” the deputy chief said.

BDN sports freelancer Ryan McLaughlin grew up in Brewer and is a lifelong fan of the New England Patriots, Boston Red Sox, Boston Celtics and Boston Bruins.
