Kensington man dies in Portsmouth crash
Sep. 5—A Kensington man has died after the motorcycle he was operating hit a car driven by a 16-year-old female, Portsmouth police said.
Around 10:19 p.m. Saturday, Portsmouth police responded to an accident involving a motorcycle and motor vehicle on Lang Road near Longmeadow Road.
The motorcycle rider, identified by police as Jack Tizzard, 22, of Kensington, was transported to Portsmouth Regional Hospital, where he later died of his injuries.
