MSP Investigating Crash in Aroostook County

On Friday, September 12, 2025, at approximately 7:52 AM, Troopers responded to a crash involving a vehicle and a horse-drawn wagon on Benedicta Road in Sherman.

 

The initial investigation indicates the driver of a 2003 Toyota pickup attempted to pass the horse and wagon, which were traveling in the same direction, but reported she did not have enough room to safely do so and struck the wagon.

The wagon was destroyed in the crash, and the horse sustained a laceration to its leg and foot. The driver of the Toyota, Lindsay Duffy-Stanley (42) of Benedicta, was not injured. She was cited for driving to endanger.
