Just
before 5 p.m. on July 12, Deputies from the Knox County Sheriff’s Office responded
to a call of a two vehicle head-on crash on Rt. 17 in Union, just east of
Shepard Hill Rd.
Sherry Cloutier, 52, of Augusta, operating a 2011 Ford Sedan, was driving west on Rt. 17. For some unknown
reason, Cloutier crossed the center line and struck a 2002 Saab sedan operated by Angela
Knight-Boege, 49, of Warren, who had been travelling eastbound, head-on.
Both Cloutier and Knight-Boege were
pronounced dead at the scene. There were
no other passengers in either vehicle. Rt.17 was shut down to traffic for nearly 3 hours before crews were able
to clear the road.
Assistance
was provided by Knox County Regional Communications Center, Union Fire and
Ambulance Dept., Northeast Ambulance, and Washington Fire Dept.
