Two men from Region One were seriously injured about their heads and bodies after the ATV motorcycle they were traversing on hit a pothole and lost control at Falls Top, Main Access Road, North West District (NWD).
Injured are 28-year-old Orson Speede who was the driver of the ATV motorcycle and pillion rider 30-year-old Roberto Miggins, both from Region One.
Inquiries disclosed that motorcycle CH8356 was proceeding north along the western side of Falls Top Main Access Road, NWD at a fast rate of speed when it is alleged that the driver hit a pothole and lost control.
