RANGELEY, Maine — A New York couple were injured Friday morning in a crash involving a snowmobile and pickup truck in Rangeley.
Shortly after 10:30 a.m. Friday, a Kennebec County sheriff's deputy responded to a report of a crash that involved a snowmobile and a pickup truck on Loon Lake Road, the Kennebec County Sheriff's Office said in a release.
Dennis Hummel, 68, of East Meadow, New York was reportedly operating a snowmobile on a trail that approaches Loon Lake Road, according to the release.
During that time, 61-year-old Mark Nedeau of Oquossoc was driving a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado on Loon Lake Road. As he was approaching the snowmobile crossing, Hummel allegedly failed to stop at the intersection for an unknown reason, the sheriff's office said.
As a result, the snowmobile was struck by the pickup truck.
Hummel and his wife were taken to Franklin Memorial Hospital with injuries not considered life-threatening.
