Thomas Young, 39, of Manchester, NH was hit by a Mitsubishi Lancer being operated by Sean Bibeau, 21, of Derry, NH while Young was stopped on his Kawasaki Nomad motorcycle on the Exit 5 ramp off I-93 in Londonderry, NH this past Monday afternoon around 3:00pm. The Eagle Tribune reports that the impact from Bibeau’s vehicle then pushed Young forward into a Dodge Neon, driven by Illysa Sherman, 20, of East Hampstead, NH, causing Young to be trapped in between the 2 vehicles on either end of his motorcycle.
Thankfully, no one involved in the motorcycle crash was seriously injured. It was reported that Young had been wearing a helmet and was transported to a local hospital as a precautionary measure. Authorities are reportedly not charging Bibeau for causing the chain-reaction accident.
