The motorcyclist suffered undetermined injuries and was airlifted to the hospital by Ornge for treatment.
“Thank you to all the good Samaritans who assisted me as I was the first officer on the scene of this crash. People directing traffic, to the off-duty paramedic that assisted that motorcycle operator, on behalf of the OPP and on behalf of the Sanchuk family, and from the bottom of my heart, I just want to say thank you for all of your assistance,” Sgt. Sanchuk said.
“You made a difficult scene just a little bit easier today, and I just wanted to say thank you.”
Sanchuk also reminded drivers to ensure to have your eyes peeled while on the road.
