Person dead in crash between truck and e-bike identified

An electric bicycle collided with a pickup truck in Hingham, Massachusetts, early Monday morning, leaving one person dead and another seriously hurt, police said.

The two injured people were both on the e-bike, which collided with the truck on Rockland Street at Ringbolt Road about 6:11 a.m. on Oct. 30, while it was still dark and raining, according to Hingham police.

Both e-bike riders were taken to South Shore Hospital, where one of them died from their injuries. That victim was identified Sunday as 61-year-old Junming Mei, of Hingham, Mass.

The surviving person has since been released from the hospital, police said.

The pickup's driver stayed at the scene and wasn't hurt, according to police.

The two vehicles were believed to have both been traveling west on Rockland Street at the time of the crash, police said.

The investigation is ongoing.
