CORNISH, Maine — A collision on Route 5 in Cornish on Thursday morning claimed the life of a Sanford man, according to the York County Sheriff’s Office.
Preliminary investigation indicates Paul Goodwin, 34, was heading south and crossed the center line, striking a vehicle driven by William Loring, 44, of Parsonsfield, Sheriff William King said.
King said it is unclear why Goodwin crossed into northbound traffic. The sheriff’s office is reconstructing the crash.
Goodwin was pronounced dead at the scene and Loring suffered serious injuries and was taken to Maine Medical Center, King said. An update on Loring’s condition was not available.
