Canadian couple killed when their motorcycle hits back of vehicle in New York
MALONE, N.Y. – State police say a Canadian couple has died after their motorcycle slammed into the back of a vehicle on a northern New York road.
Troopers say 60-year-old Jacques Patenaude of Ontario was driving his Harley-Davidson north on state Route 37 around 10:30 a.m. Thursday when he crashed into the back of a Jeep Grand Cherokee.
The vehicle had stopped to make a left turn at an intersection in the town of Malone, near the Canadian border in Franklin County.
Police say Patenaude and his 55-year-old wife, Linda, were both pronounced dead at the scene by the county coroner.
The 53-year-old Malone man who was driving the Jeep was taken a hospital for evaluation.
