Biker Collides With Concrete Curb, Dies

DENVER -- A 24-year-old man died Monday morning when his motorcycle crashed into a concrete curb in Littleton.

The accident happened around 2 a.m. on Holland Way and Mapplewood Place.

A black Suzuki motorcycle was southbound on South Holland Way when it drifted to the west side of the road and collided with the raised concrete curb, said Trooper Ryan Sullivan of the Colorado State Patrol.

"The rider was ejected and traveled into the grass shoulder and collided with multiple objects," Sullivan said.

The victim has been identified as Mitchell Marsolek of Lakewood, he said.

Marsolek suffered serious injuries and was taken to Swedish Medical Center where he later died.

He was wearing a helmet and alcohol and speed are being investigated as possible contributing factors, Sullivan said.
