WEST PARIS — Two Bethel residents were taken to a hospital for evaluation Sunday afternoon following a head-on vehicle collision on High Street.

According to Oxford County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Michael Dailey, the crash occurred at approximately 3:30 p.m. when a 2013 Volkswagen Jetta driven by Nicholas Seames, 28, of Bethel, headed south on High Street collided with a Dodge pickup truck operated by Winthrop Comley, 72, of West Paris, as it turned left onto Porter Road. 

Tri-Town Rescue, PACE Ambulance Services and the West Paris and Paris fire departments responded to the scene, Dailey said.

Seames and his passenger, Chantel Tedford, 21, of Bethel, were transported to Stephens Memorial Hospital in Norway for evaluation but did not appear to sustain serious injuries, Dailey said. 

Comely refused treatment at the scene, he said. 

No charges are expected in connection with the crash, Dailey said.
