CHAPMAN, Maine — A head-on collision in Chapman sent one person to the hospital Tuesday, according to the Aroostook County Sheriff’s Office.
At 2:05 p.m. 75-year-old Brenda Boykin was driving south on the West Chapman Road in her 2009 Mercury Grand Marquis when she crossed the center of the road and struck a 2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer driven by Tiernan Walsh, 20, who was headed north.
The initial investigation by the Sheriff’s Office and Presque Isle Police Department found that Boykin likely suffered a medical episode which caused her to lose control of her vehicle.
