2 Biddeford teen-agers killed in one-car accident

BIDDEFORD — Two teen-agers were killed and another person was injured in a one-car accident at 10:50 p.m. Wednesday on Route 9 in this southern Maine town.

Kevin K. Bisson, 19, and William P. Cote, 16, both of Biddeford, were killed in the accident. Another passenger was hospitalized and a fourth person who was in the car walked away from the accident, said police Chief Roger Beaupre.

A preliminary investigation indicated that excessive speed and alcohol may have been factors in the crash. Beer cans were found in the vehicle, the chief said.

The 1979 Ford Mustang was traveling eastbound when it crossed into the oncoming lane, returned to the right lane and then hit a tree before coming to rest on its side. An investigation was continuing, said Beaupre.
