WILTON — A Weld woman was injured Thursday morning when the truck she was driving went off a curve on Colby Miller Road, rolled onto its side and broke a utility pole.

Linda Lee, 70, complained of chest pain from the seat belt and from striking the steering wheel, Wilton Police officer Kevin Lemay said.

The 2008 Ford F-250 got onto the soft shoulder, rolled onto its side, slid down an embankment and broke a utility pole at its base, Lemay said.

Lee was taken by NorthStar EMS ambulance to Franklin Memorial Hospital in Farmington.

The truck had major damage.

Wilton Fire/Rescue Department assisted at the scene, and Central Maine Power replaced the broken pole.
