Double Fatal

On Thursday, February 13, 2025, at approximately 6:05 AM, Maine State Police Troop G responded to a fatal motor vehicle crash at mile marker 14 southbound on I-95 in Ogunquit.

The initial investigation indicates a tractor trailer unit owned by EW Logistics of Hauppage, NY and operated by 35-year-old XIAOYING MA of New York City, NY was traveling northbound when he lost control and crashed through the median guardrail into two vehicles traveling southbound. The first vehicle was a Cadillac sedan operated by 64-year-old Linda Huelsman of Kennebunk who died on scene from her injuries. The second vehicle struck was a Mack Box truck owned by EAN Holdings of Tulsa, OK and operated 55-year-old Brian Ellis of Kittery.

Mr. Ellis was transported to Portsmouth Regional Hospital but later died from his injuries. The driver of the tractor trailer was transported to York Hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The Turnpike was shut down southbound at Exit 14 in Wells. Two lanes have since re-opened. Weather conditions are believed to be a factor in the crash.

The investigation is ongoing and will be submitted to the York County District Attorney’s Office for review of any criminal charges. Assisting the Maine State Police was the Ogunquit and Wells Fire Departments, Maine DEP, Maine Turnpike Maintenance and National Wrecker.
