A lone motorcycle rider who was about to go home after a drag race met an accident along V.P. Inting Stree in barangay Mansasa, this city early morning yesterday.
The victim, identified as one Dennis Lajot, 25, a resident of B. Aquino Avenue, this city, came from a drag race which started at the Bool Junction to Baclayon town about 1:20 a.m. yesterday.
According to his fellow drag racers, Lajot was driving his Honda Wave motorcycle and was running at high speed when he suddenly swerved into a roadside canal near the Mansasa Chapel.
