WARREN (7/22/18) – On July 21, at approximately 2:55 p.m., The Knox County Sheriff’s Office, Warren Fire Department, Waldoboro, and Warren Ambulance Services responded to a three-vehicle collision at the intersection of Route 1 and the North Pond Road in Warren.

Forest and Sydney Faulkingham, both aged 69 and of Alna, were waiting to make a left turn onto North Pond Road from the north bound lane of Route 1, in their red 2010 Toyota Corolla, when the car was struck by another vehicle.

Brennan Harris, 17, was driving a red 2017 Chevy Malibu northbound on Route 1 and did not see the Faulkingham vehicle had stopped, according to a Knox County Sheriff’s Office news release.

Harris’ vehicle struck the Faulkingham vehicle, sending it across the center line into the path of a southbound Route 1 maroon 2018 Subaru Outback occupied by Maria, 67, and Joseph, 66, Ditzel.

Harris’s Malibu then collided with the Faulkingham’s car.

Sydney Faulkingham suffered serious injuries and was transported via LifeFlight from Warren, according to the news release. Waldoboro and Warren EMS transported Harris, Maria Ditzel and Harris’ passenger, Simon Turner, 18.

Knox County Regional Communications Center coordinated all aspects of the emergency response.

Oyster River Towing towed all three vehicles.
