A 1999 Jeep Cherokee rests on its roof on Rumford Avenue in Woodstock. The driver, Jonathan Timm, sustained serious injuries and was taken to Central Maine Medical Center by LifeFlight.

According to Deputy Nate Bowie of the Oxford County Sheriff's Office, Jonathan Timm, 30, was traveling west on Rumford Avenue off of Route 232 when his 1999 Jeep Cherokee left the roadway around 8 p.m.

Bowie said the Jeep rolled over, causing "serious injuries," but the driver was not ejected.

LifeFlight was called in, and a temporary landing zone was established at the town garage to take Timm to Central Maine Medical Center.

Bowie said the accident is still under investigation, but that he suspects alcohol to be a factor.
