NEWBURY - The man who died Friday after a motorcycle crash near the village of Newbury has been identified as Gary Rooyakkers, 56.

Police said Rooyakkers was travelling south on Hagerty Rd. around 10:30 p.m. on a Kawasaki Z7F motorcycle when he went off the road, struck a fence and tree and was thrown from the bike.

He was taken by ambulance to Four Counties Hospital in Newbury where he died.
