Manchester Motorcycle Crash Leaves One With Life-Threatening Injuries

MANCHESTER, NH — A motorcycle operator was seriously injured in an accident involving a car in Manchester on Wednesday.

Manchester police, fire, and AMR ambulance responded to a report of an accident at the intersection of Union and Willow Street. While en route, responders were advised CPR was being performed on the operator of the motorcycle. Firefighters and medics continued performing CPR and activated a trauma alert at the Elliot Hospital for a person with multi-system trauma.

At the scene, police could be examining a blue car stopped in the intersection just a short distance from the motorcycle. Police closed several roads around the scene of the accident. Manchester Police Accident Reconstruction Team will be investigating for the next several hours.

At this time, it appears there was only one person on the motorcycle, and the car's operator did not appear to be injured and remained at the scene speaking to police.

Earlier this month, a crash involving a car and motorcycle left a Dunbarton couple dead on Elm Street in Manchester.
