Three Motorcyclists Injured in Niagara County Crash, One Airlifted with Critical Injuries

A serious motorcycle accident in Cambria on Monday night left three people injured, including a 20-year-old man who suffered life-threatening injuries and required emergency air transport to Erie County Medical Center.

The crash occurred just before 9:30pm on the 4800 block of Cambria Lockport Townline Road. Niagara County sheriff’s deputies arriving on the scene discovered three motorcyclists down on the roadway.

According to authorities, the group had been traveling northbound when three motorcycles collided and crashed into a guardrail.

Emergency crews, including the Cambria Volunteer Fire Company and Niagara County deputies, provided life-saving aid. A tourniquet was applied to the 20-year-old male victim to control arterial bleeding from a severe leg injury.

After being stabilized by paramedics from the Cambria and City of Lockport fire departments, he was airlifted by Mercy Flight to ECMC for further treatment.

Two other riders - a 31-year-old man and a 27-year-old woman - were also injured in the crash. Both were transported to ECMC via ambulance for evaluation and treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.

The cause of the accident remains under investigation by the Niagara County Sheriff's Office. No further details have been released at this time.
