A Massachusetts man is in critical condition after an overnight snowmobile crash in Maine, according to the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife.
Authorities say 55-year-old Spencer, Massachusetts native Duane Carter and 47-year-old Benedicta native Keith Sanford were riding with a group on a portion of Swift Brook Road when the two faqiled to negotiate a curve.
As a result, Carter collided with the back of Sanford's snowmobile and was thrown from his own, causing critical injuries.
