A 34-year-old Devonshire man reportedly sustained serious head injuries after a crash with two other motorcyclists on Friday night.

The accident appears to have been a result of the man riding while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Police said yesterday they arrested the injured Devonshire man for suspicion of impaired driving.

After the accident he was taken to King Edward Memorial VII for treatment. He was released on Saturday.

At 9.35 on Friday night Police attended the three-vehicle collision on Parsons Lane in Devonshire. According to their report, the Devonshire man was on a Honda motorcycle travelling east on Parsons Lane when it was in collision with a Malaguti auxiliary cycle and a Yamaha motorcycle travelling in the opposite direction.

The rider of the auxiliary cycle, a 17-year-old Devonshire man, and the rider of the Yamaha, a 19-year-old Warwick man each injured their right arms.
