McKinley died on impact police say. Her son, William McKinley, 57, of Farmington, who had been in the vehicle with his mother, was brought to Redington Fairview General Hospital where he was treated for rib and wrist injuries.

Savage had been also brought to Redington for his injuries but needed to be airlifted to Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor where police say he is in "critical condition." 

Both vehicles were demolished in this crash.  

Savage was not wearing a seatbelt, however, both Sally and William McKinley were wearing seatbelts.  

The cause of the accident remains under investigation.
