A man involved in a wreck that claimed the life of a Madison woman last November has been charged with manslaughter.

According to the Kennebec Journal, 40-year-old Bradford Enos of Atkinson was indicted last month.

Police say he was driving a truck on I-95 in Waterville when he hit car that then crashed into Michelle Demchak, a 59-year-old nurse.

The woman was trying to help someone involved in a separate crash when she was struck by the vehicle.
