BALDWIN, Maine — A teen from Limerick was transported to the hospital Sunday afternoon when he reportedly lost control of his motorcycle, crashed, and hit a stone wall in Baldwin.

Wyatt Esculano, 19, of Limerick was driving a 1994 Harly Davidson motorcycle southbound when he left the roadway after failing to navigate a curve and struck a stone wall near 392 Bridgton Road, according to a release from the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office.

The sheriff's office, Baldwin Fire Department, and Standish Fire-EMS responded to the crash at 4:21 p.m. Esculano was transported to Maine Medical Center for "life-threatening injuries," the release stated.

Officials said Esculano was not wearing a helmet and was not licensed or permitted to operate a motorcycle.

Speed and driver inexperience appear to be factors in the crash, according to the release. Deputies are still investigating.
