AVON — An Augusta woman was hurt Sunday when the motorcycle she was driving went off state Route 4, Sheriff Scott Nichols Sr. wrote in an email.

Hours later a truck driven by a Massachusetts man on state Route 142 in Phillips had a mechanical problem and the vehicle hit a utility pole and wires.

In the first crash, reported at about 1:10 p.m., Cassandra Tondreau, 53, of Augusta was driving a 2019 Harley-Davidson with other motorcyclists just north of Country Delight, when she failed to negotiate a corner due to speed,  Nichols wrote.

She was taken by a NorthStar EMS ambulance to Franklin Memorial Hospital in Farmington.

Sgt. Jacob Richards responded to the crash in Phillips about 7:45 p.m. Jonathan Resnick, 49, of Littleton, Massachusetts, was driving a 2012 Ford pickup truck north when a mechanical problem caused it to swerve right and hit a utility pole, Nichols wrote.

Central Maine Power Co. replaced the pole, Nichols wrote.

No injuries were reported.
