A man was transported to the hospital with head injuries on Saturday morning after his motorcycle crashed in Allston, police said.
The man was riding west on Brighton Avenue at about 2:30 a.m. when the crash occurred. Witnesses said the man had just stopped at a traffic light at the corner of Allston Street and was beginning to accelerate when his motorcycle skidded sideways, ejecting him onto the street. The motorcycle came to rest on top of the man after the crash, witnesses said.
The extent of the man’s injuries is unknown. Police at the scene said that the victim was bleeding from the head and that his injuries were serious.
Witnesses said that at least one other motorcycle rider was stopped at the traffic light near the victim immediately before the incident.
The man was wearing a helmet when the crash occurred.
No other injuries were reported. The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
I know the driver, who was not under the influence of any alcohol at the time (a friend was with him an hour before and had just soda all night)….. Wonder what happened that he crashed? He is a good kid, decent person, so please keep him in your prayers…
I want a bike so badly but this is why I can’t have one.
This guy has a hard road a head of him. I heard he was with his friends but after he crashed they left him there alone. The poor guy will have to deal with getting better and now he has to deal with bad friends.
