Cromwell Man Injured in Plainville Motorcycle Crash

A Cromwell man was injured in a motorcycle crash in Plainville early Thursday morning.

Police said David Turner, of Cromwell, lost control of his motorcycle on Route 177 between Bradley Street and Day Road around 1:30 a.m. and hit a pole.

He was transported to Hartford Hospital and is in stable condition.

A neighbor said Turner was clutching his leg and yelling for help. 

“I ran outside because we heard the guy screaming, ‘Help, Help. Help.’ So then that’s when I came running one street over and I saw the guy lying on the ground clutching his, leg screaming help,” Robert Flowers, of Plainville, said.

The intersection was closed as crews responded, but it has since reopened.
