SPRINGFIELD -- A motorcycle rider remained in critical condition early Tuesday morning at Baystate Medical Center after a serious crash on Interstate 91 northbound shortly before 8 p.m. Monday, according to Massachusetts State Police.
A state police trooper stationed at the Springfield barracks said the man, whom police have yet to publicly identify, is currently in the hospital's intensive care unit. A state police media spokesman in Framingham did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
The man crashed his bike around 7:50 p.m. Monday near Exit 10 in the city's North End. That prompted the closure of all but one of I-91's northbound lanes in the vicinity of the crash to allow a state police accident-reconstruction unit to investigate.
All lanes were reopened by 11:30 p.m., state police said.
The motorcycle continued for about 300 yards after the man fell from the bike, according to one report.
