One person is dead from a head-on crash in the York County town of Cornish on Monday afternoon.

Troopers say a Ford Fusion car driven by 51-year-old Donna Webber of Limerick was northbound on Sokokis Trail when she crossed the centerline and collided head-on with a Ford F-350 commercial vehicle that was towing a trailer with two pickup trucks.

Webber was pronounced dead at the scene, while the driver of the commercial vehicle was not injured.

Troopers say they were called to the scene at 1:42 pm Monday. The road was closed for approximately six hours while members of the Maine State Police Traffic Safety Unit reconstructed the scene.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
