A tragic accident in Voluntown claimed the life of Donald Sunny, a 55-year-old resident of Jewett City, Thursday afternoon.
According to Connecticut State Police, Sunny was involved in a motorcycle crash around 5:22 p.m. on Shetucket Turnpike, near the intersection with Campbell Mill Road.
Preliminary investigations reveal that Sunny was riding a gray 2023 Kawasaki KLR650 westbound on Shetucket Turnpike.
As he navigated a left-hand curve while descending, the motorcycle veered off into a roadside area of dirt and gravel. The bike then struck a metal beam guardrail.

Sunny was ejected from the motorcycle and landed in an embankment in a wooded area nearby. Despite being rushed to William W. Backus Hospital in Norwich, he was pronounced dead.
