Massachusetts woman killed in ATV crash Saturday

PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • July 2, 2023

Abigail Divoll, 25, of Royalston, Massachusetts was a passenger in a side-by-side ATV in Coplin Plantation driven by Matthew Tolman, 26, of Hubbardstown, Massachusetts when Tolman drove into a washed-out portion of the trail they were riding on and lost control of the vehicle. Divoll was killed in the crash, and Tolman was thrown from the vehicle and suffered a serious head injury. Neither Divoll nor Tolman was wearing a helmet, and it appears that speed and alcohol may have been factors in the crash. Following one of the rainiest Junes in recent memory, some off-road vehicle trails are in poor shape. Clubs have been asked to temporarily close trails.
