A Connecticut man is dead after his motorcycle was involved in a collision on Interstate 95 in Spotsylvania County on Saturday.

Antoine L. Hall, of Windsor, Conn., who was on the motorcycle, suffered life-threatening injuries in the crash and was transported to Spotsylvania Regional Hospital where he later died, according to Virginia State Police.

The fatal three-vehicle crash occurred at the 120-mile marker on I-95 north at 7:15 p.m.

According to police, Hall’s Honda motorcycle was traveling at a high rate of speed when it attempted to go between a Chevrolet Silverado in the middle lane and a Buick Enclave in the left lane.

Hall was wearing a helmet.

The driver of the Chevrolet, a 47-year-old male from Port Charlotte, Fla., and an adult passenger were not injured in the crash. They were wearing seatbelts.

The driver of the Buick, a 54-year-old male from Cortland, N.Y., and an adult passenger were not injured. They were wearing seatbelts.
