The 34-year-old man who crashed his motorcycle into the Birdcage in Hamilton yesterday morning has died.

At 1.22am, first responders attended a report of a single-vehicle accident, which occurred as the man was travelling west along Front Street at the junction with Queen Street.

The man was taken to King Edward VII Memorial Hospital, where he was listed in very critical condition in the ICU. Police spokesman Dwayne Caines said. “Police are appealing for witnesses to contact them on 295-0011.”

Subsequent to that incident, the Bermuda Police Service have warned motorists to exercise great care when approaching the junction of The Lane and Harbour Road in Paget owing to a possible oil spill near the offices of the Bermuda Veterinary Service.

The Department of Works and Engineering is sending a work crew to the area to assess and assist.
