A motorcyclist died Saturday afternoon in Gray when he apparently failed to stop at a stop sign and struck a pickup truck.
Bruce E. Smith, 56, of Standish was not wearing a helmet and was pronounced dead at the scene, according to the Cumberland County sheriff’s office.
Smith was traveling north on Shaker Road, also known as Route 26, at about 12:18 p.m. on his orange 2011 Can-Am Spyder motorcycle, the sheriff’s office said in a news release. He continued through the intersection at Route 26A and struck a black Ford F-350 traveling south.
The driver of the truck, Ryan Glidden, 37, of Gray was not injured.
Alcohol did not appear to be a factor in the incident, the release said.
The crash is being reconstructed by the sheriff’s office.
