With heavy hearts, we remember Joamaliz Orozco, a 19-year-old young woman whose life was tragically cut short following a fatal motor vehicle crash in Falmouth, Maine. Her sudden passing has left family, friends, and all who knew her mourning an unimaginable loss.
According to authorities, on Saturday, January 17, 2026, at approximately 1:57 p.m., Maine State Police Troopers responded to a serious motor vehicle crash on the Falmouth Spur eastbound, near the on-ramp to Interstate 295 north. Reports indicated that a vehicle had left the roadway and struck a guardrail. Emergency responders, including Falmouth Fire and Rescue, arrived quickly at the scene.
