Last night around 11:30 PM & 12:15 AM in the morning a high speed motorcycle crash resulted in a death, killing the operator of the motorcycle. The operator of the motorcycle was ejected when his bike crashed into a car driven by Pat Donovan on Gerritsen Avenue. The bike then disengrated with parts strewn all over Gerritsen Ave. The accident was so severe the bike didn’t stop until sliding until it reached the Salon Siena over a block away.
According to witnesses, FDNY was the first to arrive and immediately started CPR on the driver. They eventually gave up and loaded him into the Ambulance.
The bike was seen speeding up and down Gerritsen Avenue all night until the incident.
This isn’t the first time someone has been killed on Gerritsen Ave while using a motorcycle. Back in November 1998 Mike “Spanky†Corno was killed the same way in the same spot.

It’s really sad that with all of these accidents that happen and result in the deaths of young adults, no one ever learns.

maybe there is some kind of a belief in that certain area in Gerritsen Ave that shows the explanation that had happened to the two people in that area. maybe certain departments should do an actions about it. or organize departments that will do a research both scientific and natural phenoma as it is.
