MADRID, Maine — An Oxford man is dead after an ATV he was riding crashed in Maine on Monday afternoon, officials said.
The Maine Warden Service said the crash happened around 4 p.m. in Madrid, about 60 miles from August.
Sebastian Constantini, 47, was riding solo on a 2019 Suzuki King Quad ATV while his brother and friend were on separate ATVs and following him, officials said.
All three were reportedly returning to a hotel a few miles away when they began down an incline. Constantini, leading the group, drove over a wooden bridge when he lost control as he came off the bridge and onto the trail.
Officials said Constantini was thrown from his ATV and suffered head and neck injuries. He was not wearing a helmet, according to officials.
Constantini was pronounced dead at the scene.
Maine Warden Service officials said speed was a factor in the crash
