Yesterday afternoon, Nov. 5, a crash involving a tractor-trailer and a pedestrian occurred on I-95 southbound near mile marker 157 in Palmyra.
The incident happened as a worker from Northeast Paving was placing cones on the highway for an upcoming paving project. A tractor-trailer, carrying recycled paper, struck the construction vehicle, causing the worker, 24-year-old Charles Miller of Enfield, to be thrown from the truck.
Miller sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was transported to Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor for treatment. The driver of the tractor-trailer, 38-year-old Boureima Dicko of Allentown, Pennsylvania, and employed by JT Freight Inc. of Des Plaines, Illinois, was not injured.
Additionally, the driver of the construction vehicle was unharmed.
