MANCHESTER, NH – A Manchester man is dead following a motorcycle crash Oct. 6 on Interstate 293 southbound.
At 2:24 p.m. State Troopers assigned to the Troop B barracks responded to a reported crash in the area of Exit 6.
The preliminary investigation determined that Matthew R. Alosa, 59, of Manchester, was traveling south on his black 2009 Harley-Davidson motorcycle when he did not negotiate a left turn along the road and ultimately lost control of the motorcycle. The Harley-Davidson went off the right side of the road and entered a wooded area, where the motorcycle came to a stop.
As a result of injuries suffered during the crash, Alosa was pronounced deceased at the scene by members of the Manchester Fire Department.
During the investigation, the right lane of I-293 southbound and the on-ramp from Eddy Road to I-293 southbound were shut down. Both were reopened just before 5:30 p.m.
Troopers were assisted at the scene by members of the Manchester police and fire departments and the New Hampshire Department of Transportation.
The crash remains under investigation. Anyone with information that may assist the investigation is asked to contact Trooper Parker Bell at (603) 223-4381 or Parker.R.Bell@dos.nh.gov.
