AUGUSTA, Maine — Trooper Corey Smith of the Maine State Police said Sunday that a previous medical condition caused an accident on Route 1 in Northport last July that injured a Tennessee couple.
Smith said the accident report indicates that Karen Roberts, 51, of Belfast could have gone into diabetic shock when her truck crossed the centerline on Route 1 and crashed into a motorcycle.
The couple on the bike, Cecil and Linda Gentry, both 52, were flown to Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor with serious injuries.
The accident was not alcohol-related, Smith said. The tests have been done.
