STANDISH — A 60-year-old Limington motorist ran a red light and crashed into a 57-year-old Massachusetts bicyclist in Standish on Saturday afternoon, according to police.
Daniel O’Connor of Dudley was making a left turn from Route 113 onto Route 25 when a car driven by 60-year-old Michael Lamontagne of Limington struck him, according to the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office.
Lamontagne failed to stop at a red light while making a left turn from Route 25 onto Route 113, and didn’t notice the cyclist, police said. O’Conner flipped over the hood of Lamontagne’s Chevy Camaro and into the windshield, police said.
The crash happened at 2 p.m., police said.
O’Connor, who was wearing a bike helmet at the time of the crash, was transported to Maine Medical Center for treatment. Police said that he had been riding a high-end Cervelo carbon fiber bicycle with Zipp 303 wheelset, estimated to be worth over $6,000.
Lamontagne was issued a summons for driving to endanger and failure to stop at a red light.
