BREAKING NEWS — Fatal accident in Lorain
Jason Hawk | The Chronicle-Telegram
LORAIN – A dirt bike rider was killed almost instantly Thursday evening in South Lorain after crashing into a tow truck, Lorain police officer Dennis
Walend said.
Seth Polly, 20, of Lorain, zoomed past a stop sign on a 2003 Yamaha YZ858 – which isn’t street-legal – and struck the side of the wrecker at 4:31
p.m., Walend said.
The crash happened on East 36th Street at the intersection of Seneca Avenue. Walend said the tow truck had stopped at the sign and was turning right
when Polly slammed into it.
Lorain County Coroner Paul Matus said Polly suffered a skull fracture and had internal bleeding in the brain and chest. He said Polly died within
moments of the impact with the truck.
Polly was not wearing a helmet, but considering the speed he was traveling, the force with which he hit the truck and the injuries to his upper body,
a helmet would not have made a difference, Matus said.
Walend said drugs and alcohol aren’t suspected in the crash, but reckless driving was an important factor.

i used to build ramps in the alley and have my friends and neighbors lie down on the pavement and i'd jump them on my bike.

MM.
^^^^^^^ Man I hope you don't ride like that into a intersection with oncoming traffic. But then again you listen to juggaloos music.
All kidding aside be safe homie. BKT - 8-23-2008 at 05:26 PM
hahaha actually ya I don't do that. None the less hitting a ramp and doing a back flip could be seen as stupid though. I agree this guy was not
thinking, but I still feel bad for him.
And what is jugalo music?
