Palmyra man likely died before car crash

PALMYRA – A Palmyra man likely had a medical attack just before his car crashed off Madawaska Road near his home just after 8 a.m. Tuesday.

George Graham, 73, had several medical conditions, and one of them likely contributed to the accident, according to Somerset County Deputy Chris McKenna.

“It appears that he died, and then his car slowly continued off the road,” McKenna said.

Graham, who was alone in the car, was operating a 1994 Buick that was minimally damaged.

McKenna was assisted at the scene by the Pittsfield police and fire departments.
