This accident response came in at 11:41 PM for Charlestown Road in the Swiss Pines area. Crews arrived to find one motorcycle on its side, and no driver around. Fire department personnel used thermal imaging to check the motorcycle and the nearby woods for any heat signatures without success. Although the bike was warm, the tags were removed. During the operation Fire Police worked to take traffic down to one lane until the cycle could be removed. Afterwards the Fire units cleared. Service time was about an hour.
