Madawaska car crash causes minor injuries

MADAWASKA – Two Madawaska women were taken on Thursday to the Northern Maine Medical Center after a late afternoon car accident.

Treated at the Fort Kent hospital and then released were Therese Picard, 72, and Jeannine Dionne, 75, both of Madawaska.

Madawaska Police Chief Ronald Pelletier said there may have been a mechanical malfunction with the 1991 four-door sedan driven by Picard.

Picard was northbound on Sixth Avenue when the vehicle went off the left-hand side of the road and struck the back of the Big K-Mart Store, Pelletier said.

The car, owned by Picard, had about $4,000 in damage.

There was no damage to the store.
