Original Toronto Star caption: Motorcycle driver Bradley Newth was killed and passenger Douglas Nash seriously injured when this bike skidded on Don Valley Parkway last night after entering from north-bound Lawrence Ave. ramp. A constable and detective check the bike while others combed the area on the theory a sniper shot the bikers. An autopsy later disproved this; showing Newth was pierced by bike equipment.
