Lynn Motorcycle Accident, MA: On Thursday, a motorcyclist was killed when his vehicle collided with an SUV on Wyman Street.
The event, which occurred at approximately 2:00 p.m., is still under investigation by the Police Department. As of this writing, the victim had not been publicly identified. Across the street, Steven Tenney said he saw a biker going 50 to 60 mph from the direction of Walnut Street.
He claimed that the motorbike and SUV crashed, sending both vehicles careening more than a hundred feet down the road and the rider careening off into a nearby yard. Tenney claims that a police officer from a station farther up the street ran to help. Before paramedics arrived to take the man to the hospital, he performed CPR on him. While checking for a pulse, the officer detected nothing. The only thing I felt was nothing,” Tenney remarked. We labored on him until the rest of the group arrived.
According to eyewitnesses, the people in the car appeared to be emotionally distressed but otherwise unharmed. Tenney remarked, “It was not (the car driver’s) fault, it was clearly not her fault.” The crash occurred on Wyman Street, and Mathew Copithorne witnessed it. He claimed he was at home at the time of the occurrence and rushed out to help before emergency personnel arrived.
Copithorne, who claims to have lived on the street for 20 years, claimed he wasn’t surprised by the occurrence because of the way drivers on Wyman Street and throughout the city generally operate their vehicles. I dialed the city hall… Copithorne stated, “I told them to put a cruiser in my driveway if that’s what it takes to get them to act. “It’s ridiculous, I’ve been here 20 years and it’s always been this way.”
He complained about the city’s lax enforcement of speed limits. It’s fine to speed on Wyman Street, Flint Street, and everywhere else in Lynn, he said. According to Wyman Street resident Tenney, who has resided there for 19 years, the problem of speeding vehicles has always been present. Rather than using the name “Wyman Street,” he referred to it as “Wyman Highway” or “Wyman Drag Strip.” “They can go anywhere and explode…My neighbors all agree that a murder will occur here at some point.
