Raymond, New Hampshire, Motorcyclist Veers Off Route 101 Into a Tree
A motorcyclist who lost control of his motorcycle on Route 101 in Exeter died Sunday morning in the region's second fatal motorcycle crash of the weekend.
New Hampshire State Police said an Aprilia motorcycle headed west veered off the westbound lanes west of Exit 9 (Route 27) and slammed into a tree around 10:20 a.m. Drivers stopped to help the driver, Kiel Forgitano, 25, of Raymond before first responders took him to Exeter Hospital, where he died.
Excessive speed appears to have been a factor in the crash, but an investigation is ongoing.
State Police asked any witnesses to the crash or anyone with information to call (603) 679-3333.
Jordan Stacey, 36, of Lebanon, Maine, died Saturday afternoon after driving head-on into a Jeep Wrangler on River Road in Lebanon, according to the York County Sheriff's Office.
