A 56-year-old motorcyclist has died after being hit by a motorist in Montreal's Ahuntsic-Cartierville borough.

The Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) received a call around 5 p.m. Sunday reporting a collision at the intersection of Papineau Avenue and Prieur Street.

When they arrived at the scene, officers found the man lying on the ground and unconscious. They assisted him while waiting for the paramedics.

The man was transported to hospital, where he died of injuries overnight, SPVM spokesperson Sabrina Gauthier confirmed on Monday.

Police say the motorcyclist was travelling eastbound on Prieur Street when he was hit by a 24-year-old driver who was in a car travelling southbound on Papineau Avenue.

The driver of the car did not suffer any injuries.

A perimeter was erected at the site Sunday, and police are asking citizens to avoid the area.

NTSB sanctions Boeing over release of 737 MAX investigation details
WASHINGTON/SEATTLE (Reuters) -U.S. investigators on Thursday sanctioned Boeing for revealing details of a probe into a 737 MAX mid-air blowout and said they would refer its conduct to the Justice Department, prompting the embattled planemaker to issue an apology. The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board said Boeing had "blatantly violated" its rules by providing "non-public investigative information" and speculating about possible causes of the Jan. 5 Alaska Airlines door-plug emergency during a factory tour attended by dozens of journalists. The decision sheds new light on strains between the crisis-hit planemaker and government agencies at a time when it is trying to avoid criminal charges being weighed by the Department of Justice (DOJ) ahead of a July 7 deadline.

Biden addresses poor debate performance, attacks Trump at Raleigh rally
President Joe Biden on Friday addressed his poor performance in Thursday's presidential debate, just hours after he faltered on stage in his matchup against former President Donald Trump. During the rally in Raleigh, North Carolina, a more energetic-appearing Biden acknowledged that he's not a young man, but contended that his morals and history prove that he's still fit for the job. Biden spent much of the rally pointing out what he called Trump's false claims during the debate about the economy, immigration and crime.
