PEABODY — A motorcyclist sustained serious injuries in a crash that occurred near the Route 128/I-95 northbound split Sunday night.
Peabody police and firefighters responded to the scene just before 7:20 p.m., where they found the operator — about whom no further information was available — severely injured and bleeding badly.
The person received emergency medical treatment at the scene and was transported by ambulance to Beverly Hospital.
There, the operator’s injuries were evaluated and a medevac helicopter then transported him to Lahey Hospital in Burlington.
Initial reports Sunday night indicated a car was involved in the crash and that state police shut down the area to traffic for about three hours while they conducted their investigation of the scene.
No further information about the accident or the patient’s condition was available Monday afternoon.
