Police say two people are dead after an early morning car crash in Trenton.
According to police at about 1:00 am a two vehicle crash occurred on Rt-3 in the Town of Trenton, instantly killing 26-year-old Cinthya Perez of Los Angles, California. Perez was a passenger in a 2002 Toyota Corolla driven by 28-year-old Heather Lee of Providence, Rhode Island.
A second passenger, 27-year-old Tam Tran of Garden Grove, California, was critically injured in the crash. She was airlifted from the scene to Eastern Medical Center.
Police say Lee's vehicle was struck head-on by a 2000 Ford pick-up truck driven by 23-year-old Jon Dow of Hampden.
Both Lee and Dow received minor injuries and were treated and released from Maine Coast Memorial Hospital.
According to police the crash occurred when Dow's vehicle, which was heading north, crossed the centerline into the path of Lee's vehicle.
They say speed appears to be a factor.
The crash remains under investigation and is being reconstructed by the Hancock County Sheriff's Dept.
