On April 23, at approximately 3:52 p.m.. deputies from the St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office responded to a personal injury accident involving a motorcycle on Laurel Grove Road in the area of Kavanaugh Road, Mechanicsville. Upon arrival deputies located the operator, James Aloysius Butler, 36 of Eden, lying on the ground with life threatening injuries. Due to Mr. Butler's condition he was flown by Trooper 7 to Prince George’s County Hospital Shock Trauma Center. Members of the Sheriff's Office Collision Reconstruction Team were requested and assumed the investigation
Investigation revealed Mr. Butler had been operating an unregistered 1996 Suzuki GSX600 Katana motorcycle, well in excess of the posted 30 mph speed limit, when he failed to negotiate a curve in the roadway. The motorcycle exited the south side of the roadway, struck two trees and became airborne. Mr. Butler was ejected and struck another tree.
At the time of the accident Mr. Butler was not wearing the required safety equipment. Several hours after the accident, Mr. Butler succumbed to his injuries at the P.G. County Hospital Shock Trauma Center. Speed and operator error are contributing factors in the crash.
The investigation is continuing by the St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office Reconstruction Team and anyone who may have information or witnessed the accident is asked to contact Corporal D. Mills @ (301)475-4200 Ext. 1984
