A Lockport man has been indicted stemming from a deadly motorcycle accident that occurred this past summer in Niagara County.

Lewiston police announced that 27-year-old Nicholas DiCarlo has been indicted by a grand jury on a count of second-degree manslaughter in connection with a July 17th crash on Saunders Settlement Road near Niagara Wheatfield High School. Prosecutors allege DiCarlo was driving recklessly, causing the collision that killed 26-year-old Hunter Weber. He was arraigned in Niagara County Court and ordered held without bail.

Weber’s death left a deep impact on the region’s motorcycling community. Soon after the crash, riders from across Western New York organized tributes to honor Weber and others who lost their lives on the road during the summer months.

One of the memorial rides was coordinated by Weber’s friend, Joseph Matuszak, who explained that the gathering was meant to provide both comfort and solidarity for fellow riders. The journey, which stretched from Lewiston to Buffalo, allowed motorcyclists to grieve together while celebrating Weber’s life.

The case against DiCarlo is in Niagara County Court.
