Palma.—A 46-year-old motorcyclist died in the early hours of yesterday morning after apparently losing control of his motorbike along the Andratx motorway and crashing into an island which separates the Andratx motorway and the turn off to the Via Cintura.
The accident happened at 4.15a.m and the driver of the vehicle behind the motorcyclist witnessed the whole incident and immediately alerted the emergency services.
The National and Local Police were on the scene within minutes quickly followed by a team of paramedics. Sadly, the motorcyclist was trapped in the crash barrier and had to be cut free by fire fighters.
One of the bodies was freed by paramedics who battled to save his life at the scene, but there was little that could have been done to have saved the victim’s life.
