WILTON – Four people were injured Wednesday when two vehicles collided at Route 156 and Routes 2 and 4. Four others were injured Tuesday at the same intersection.

Eva Ducheney, 83, of Livermore Falls, was traveling west on Routes 2 and 4 when a vehicle driven by Eilleen Patrick, 43, of Livermore Falls came across from Route 156 toward Depot Street and failed to yield, Wilton police officer Kevin McCutcheon said.

Ducheney’s vehicle broadsided Patrick’s vehicle, which hit a utility pole, breaking it and knocking down the flashing light at the intersection, he said.

Live electrical wires were knocked down, and Central Maine Power shut off power, he said.

Ducheney and her passenger, Bernadette Guerin, 89, were both injured, he said, as were Patrick and her daughter, Danielle, 13. The latter had an injury to her head, the officer said.

“Everyone went to the hospital,” McCutcheon said.

Ducheney and Patrick and her daughter were treated and released from Franklin Memorial Hospital in Farmington, a clinical coordinator said.

Guerin was transferred to Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston, the coordinator said.

Wilton firefighters were called in to assist at the scene, as was county Deputy Sandy Burke, who assisted with traffic control.

Four senior citizens in two vehicles collided at the same intersection on Tuesday, McCutcheon said.

Gabriel Teixeira, 76, and his wife, Naomi, 74, were traveling on Route 156 and crossed Routes 2 and 4 toward Depot Street. McCutcheon said Teixeira’s vehicle collided head-on with a vehicle traveling east operated by Charles Moody, 81.

It appeared that Moody attempted to avoid the collision, McCutcheon said, and that’s how it ended up being a head-on collision.

The Teixeiras and Moody and his wife, Victoria, 80, were taken to the hospital, where they were treated and released, McCutcheon said.
