WELLS, Maine – Tim Convery and Kelli Gustafson feel lucky and grateful to be alive.
The two were traveling north on Route 1 in Kennebunk last May when a stolen car fleeing police slammed into their rear bumper and sent their vehicle tumbling to the curb on the other side of the road.
“They both had very serious, life-changing injuries,” their attorney, Taylor Asen, of the firm Gideon Asen LLC in New Gloucester, said this week.
Convery and Gustafson, both of Kennebunkport, have hired Asen because they are suing the town of Wells for its police department’s role in a high-speed chase that they say ended with their injuries.

Wells Police Investigate Shootings that Left 1 Dead & 1 Injured
Wells Police say one man is dead and another hospitalized, both due to gunshot wounds.
The incident was reported just after 3:30 on Sunday afternoon. Wells Police responded to a report of a shooting at 36 Appletree Lane, with assistance from the Ogunquit Police Department.
Officials say while police were making their way to the scene, Shaun Simmons, 57 of Wells, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. An initial investigation suggests that Simmons shot William Ness, 71 of Wells in the chest, before shooting himself. Ness was transported by Wells Emergency Medical Services to the Sanford Regional Airport, where he was flown by LifeFlight of Maine to the Portsmouth Regional Hospital.
