The man killed in a motorcycle crash Friday evening adjacent to St Ann’s Church in Bristol has been identified.
Bucks County Coroner Patricia Campi said the riders name is Timothy Nagle, 31, from Bristol.
The manner of death was accidental, she said, and the cause of death was blunt force trauma.
The crash occurred in the area of Dorrance and Pond Street at around 5:15 p.m.
A white pickup truck driver said the motorcyclist passed and struck his truck at the intersection of Washington and Pond streets heading towards Dorrance, where he apparently collided with a second vehicle.
Damage to the second vehicle, which appeared to be a SUV, could be seen on the driver’s side quarter panel. That motorist remained on scene and spoke to police.
The front half of the motorcycle laid on the sidewalk adjacent to the house of worship with the remaining section laying on the roadway.
Family members and loved ones apparently saw news of a crash circulating on social media and arrived on scene to shockingly discover Nagle was dead.
A grief stricken woman could be heard screaming “no no no no no… ” while police tried to calm and soothe her.
Authorities said the investigation into the circumstances surrounding the fatal crash remains open and active at this time.
