An Ajax male suffered multiple, serious injuries after losing control of his motorcycle and striking a pole, Durham police said yesterday.
This is the 10th reported collision with a pole in Durham so far this year – and the fifth one this month.
On May 26 at around 10:30 pm, East Division officers were called to the area of Mearns Avenue and Concession Street East in Bowmanville. A 30-year-old male motorcyclist was southbound on Mearns Avenue and was thrown from his bike after hitting a curb. The male left the roadway and hit a pole, the police said.
He was transported to a Toronto trauma centre by land ambulance with multiple, serious, but non-life threatening injuries. No other injuries were reported, it added.
Anyone with new information about this collision is asked to contact Cst. Birmingham of East Division at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 2205.
