HOLLYWOOD (Oct. 1, 2007) On Saturday, Sept. 29  at approximately 1930 hours Sean Foley Somerville, 26, of Hollywood, Maryland was racing at least one other crotch rocket motorcyclist at a high rate of speed, what one witness said was over 100 mph when he lost control near area of the Hollywood Rescue Squad and Hollywood firehouse at Woodpecker Lane, wrecked and hit an embankment and was pronounced dead at the scene.  Sgt. Steve Hall, spokesman for the St. Mary's Sheriff's Department reports that the cause was driver error and speed but it does not appear booze was a factor.
Speeding crotch rocket bikers routinely run from police at speeds of over 100 mph and elude the cops completely, passing traffic on shoulders and double yellow lines. Anyone with information about this drag race death can contact the Sheriff's Department. 
Invariably a roadside memorial of wreaths, flowers, photos and teddy bears will now be placed near the scene. A sign saying obey the speed limit should be added to the memorial for anyone who truly wants to console the Somerville family and save other lives.
