A multi-vehicle crash at mile marker 13 southbound on the Maine Turnpike June 10 in York, the result of a vehicle striking a deer.
From the Maine State Police:
On Tuesday, June 10, 2025, at approximately 7:13 pm, Troop G Troopers responded to a multi-vehicle crash at mile marker 13 southbound on the Maine Turnpike in York. The initial investigation indicates that the driver of a red Mitsubishi Mirage struck a deer in the center lane and the vehicle became disabled. The driver exited the vehicle and moved to a safe location off the roadway, as the vehicle could not be moved from its position. Shortly after, a commercial vehicle carrying fuel crested the hill behind the crash scene and was unable to stop in time. The truck struck the disabled Mitsubishi, causing it to be pushed into the median. The impact also caused the commercial truck to veer to the right and collide with a BMW crossover vehicle. Both the truck and BMW came to rest off the right side of the roadway. Fortunately, only minor injuries were reported, and no one required transport to the hospital. The deer did not survive. The crash scene required a temporary lane reduction, with southbound traffic limited to one lane for approximately one hour and fifteen minutes while the emergency response took place and vehicles were removed from the scene.
