DOVER, DE – The Delaware State Police are continuing their investigation into a single-vehicle fatal crash on Tuesday.
At approximately 3:14 p.m., a 2004 Yamaha R6L motorcycle was traveling westbound on Sorghum Mill Road approaching the intersection at Carolina Avenue. During this time, the motorcycle veered towards its left for unknown reasons, crossing into the opposing lane of travel and exiting the southern edge of the roadway.
“The motorcycle continued its path of travel until it struck a series of pine trees off of the roadway and came to rest at this location,” investigators said. “The operator of the Yamaha, a 32-year-old man from Camden-Wyoming, DE, was wearing a helmet at the time of the collision. He was transported to an area hospital, but succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased. Identification of the victim is pending notification to the next-of-kin.”
