ELLSWORTH The Maine State Police are investigating a fatal crash on Route 1 in Topsfield Jan. 14 that claimed the life of a Houlton man.

Dwyer had been southbound in a 2009 Ford pickup truck, which belongs to Bushwacker and Sons Logging Inc. out of Cary, police said.
Troopers said the truck collided with a northbound 2020 Peterbilt tractor-trailer operated by Gregory Worster, 58, of Kingman.
