WAREHAM — A motorcyclist was fatally injured in a collision with a car in the western part of town Monday afternoon, police said.
Joshua D. Garcia, 24, of Marvel Street, Marion, was riding his motorcycle north on County Road at about 4:20 p.m., police said. At the same time, Bradford Arone, 18, of Duhamel Avenue in Rochester was turning left from Wishbone Way onto County Road.
"It appears that he probably didn't see the motorcycle," police Lt. Irving Wallace said.
The vehicles collided, and Mr. Garcia was taken to Tobey Hospital, where he died, police said.
State police are investigating the accident.
Mr. Garcia was a 2000 graduate of Upper Cape Cod Regional Technical School in Bourne and played multiple sports for the school, Superintendent Kevin C. Farr said. He was hired by the district to coach freshman boys basketball and was in his first year in that position, Mr. Farr said.
"He was a role model to his players and the kind of son any one of us would be proud call to his own," Mr. Farr said. "He will be greatly missed by the players and his faculty."
His family is planning to establish a student athletic scholarship in his memory, Mr. Farr said.
