State police say a woman was killed when her vehicle slammed into the back of a tractor trailer as she was exiting the Maine Turnpike.
The woman who died was Amie Wells, 41, of Greene. Maine Department of Safety Spokesman Steve McCausland said Wells’ car was seen speeding Tuesday night. He says a state trooper had just activated the blue lights on his cruiser to pull the vehicle over when the driver exited and crashed into the back of a tractor trailer in Auburn.
The tractor-trailer driver, 40-year-old Vincent Moura Voelz of Little Elm, Texas, was not hurt.
