WATERVILLE — A two-vehicle accident on upper Main Street sent one person to the hospital Tuesday morning, police said.
The incident closed about 2 miles of Main Street, which is also state Route 104, in Waterville and Fairfield, according to Waterville police Sgt. David Caron. Waterville police diverted northbound traffic to Ridge Road. Fairfield police rerouted vehicles headed south toward Waterville along Center Road, or state Route 139.
“One vehicle rear ended the other and went off the road to the right,” said Waterville police Sgt. Kyle McDonald Tuesday afternoon. “There were minor injuries, basically a complaint of pain.”
Caron initially reported Tuesday morning that two people were sent to the hospital, but McDonald later confirmed only one person was transported. That individual was taken to MaineGeneral Medical Center, McDonald said.
Police are not releasing the names of the drivers involved because there are no charges in the case, according to McDonald. The vehicles were a Honda Accord and a Dodge pickup truck. The Accord rear-ended the pickup truck, McDonald said.
“There’s not much to it — it’s pretty common,” McDonald said. “Just a fender-bender-type (incident).”
The crash was reported at 10:08 a.m. near 404 Main St., which is just north of the ramps to Interstate 95.
